Presentation: School Library Tech 101 (September 2017)

Hello Everyone,

I presented last month on technology tips and tools at my state annual library conference in a session called

Destiny, Symbaloo, and Weebly, Oh My! School Library Tech 101

I converted the PowerPoint presentation I made for the session into a PDF document, so you can see all the technological tidbits I shared at the conference.

Some of these technological tidbits I’ve blogged about previously.

The PDF document is available here. Inside, you’ll find links to YouTube videos  and help sheets I made for different tips about Follett Destiny, Symbaloo, Weebly, Outlook, OR Codes, and TinyURL.

This session provided brief overviews of and tips for working with such technology tools as Follett Destiny as a library management system, Symbaloo as a link collection tool, and Weebly as a communication tool. QR code creation and use will also be discussed as a library investigation tool for elementary school students. Participants were asked to bring devices that can access the Internet, download free applications, and take pictures, to experience fully this tech-rich session.

Personally speaking, I think the best tip for Follett Destiny is “Book Hospital as Patron,” which is also a YouTube video on my professional channel.

Enthusiastically,

Ms. Tyler
