Hello again

Well I couldn't find it anywhere - was supposed to be being saved but it wasn't in my drafts - what a pain! - it took time and was a good one

Here goes again:-
I think the main reason I am writing is because we have been told this is what we must do - I am sure I will understand why more as time goes by

I have just been reading through a lot of the first weeks reading and now feel like I really am doing a Master of Education! The work involved to do it well is substantial and looks well thought out and aims at a rewarding end
The difficulty for me is probably what many of you are facing - not the lack of desire but the lack of time -trying to juggle the needs of two young children, teaching, running a home business and being a wife and trying to have some lesiure time is frustrating to coordinate and achieve - but it is worth the try to see how it goes

I have enjoyed getting into this topic of teacher librarianship and feel rather challenged that I am studying an area that is still developing in its role and value in society- not so much that is hasn't been well thought out before now but in that it has a long way to go in being fully realised and embraced by society at large.

For me, I am looking forward to seeing how I can be proactive in this important role within the school and wider community.

Well I must buzz off now but if anyone is actually reading htis and gets to the end can you let me know - I would be interested - you can email me at bron68@hotmail.com

Continued ramblings

Well that was a waste of time - I actually just wrote a whole blog and then I pressed what I thought was a safe button and it all disappeared!!!!!!!!!
I am going to try and find it so stay tuned

New Beginnings

Well, here I am again



Just thought I'd introduce myself - I have just started on a new journey within my larger life of pursuing a career in teacher librarianship and have thus begun a daunting Master of Education in this field.

It has been many a year since I last formally studied so it is all a little overwhelming.



Yesterday I had a search all around the website for csu and began to understand a little of university life via the internet - all of which made me feel like I if someone asked me "are you keeping your head above water?" , I would respond " Well, I don't know about that but I have my snorkel on!"



I now have a small amount of knowledge on forums, how to access my course and how to use this blog

And there's also a growing understanding of how to access my course information



As to the assigments - well I had look and now feel like I am really in for some concerted thinking! Probably very good to stimulate my brain cells and see what's still in there after all these years!



So many things I didn't know - like the residential school - but hey , hopefully there will be more on like that.



Well time to go but looking forward to finding out about using this more and grwoning in my use of all these wild and wonderful blog tools



Bye for now

Well, this is all very new to me as you can all see.
I am not even sure where this will end up once written

Yes, yes I am a-blogging along not knowing where this is all going to end up or what it will look like

But make sure you stayed tuned as I am hoping this will be a most rewarding blog to read as time goes on.

And a big hello to all you out there in blogging world - I have already visited many of your blogs and have enjoyed them very much

Well bye for now and enjoy your day!
