My abstracts are FINISHED!

I am so happy to have these finished!  I feel like it took me a lot longer than it should have (although I am ahead of most of my group).  I had a hard time narrowing down which articles to use.  I think once I got close to the deadline and just forced myself to choose, things (obviously) went a lot more quickly.  I also used drop-in child care and the tv, which helped give me stretches of time to work.

Looking ahead, I'd like to continue to focus on best practices for teacher librarians for my literature review, if that is not too broad.  If I need to narrow my focus, I could focus on TL-classroom teacher collaboration, specifically how to teach information processes and search skills, or how to promote consistent vocabulary in the information seeking process across an entire school.  In terms of data, I think I'd find the most on the TL-classroom teacher collaboration.

The readings I've done so far would significantly change the way I design assignments and teach information processing in the classroom, either as an English teacher or TL.  I'd also rethink assessment, paying more attention to the process in addition to the product.
