My first peer review is of Katherine Duke's Peer Reflection #2. Katherine shares some fantastic resources with the community. Most of them I had never heard of. She goes speaks about bettering her personal learning network as well as the never ending quest to find online professional development. She also shares her favorite media specialist with the group such as Kristina Holzweiss, a school media specialist from New York as well as links to better get to know this person. Also Holzweiss runs a group called Students of Long Island Maker Expo or S.L.I.M.E. that was enough for me to click the link.
The one website that Katherine shared was TYSL or “Transform Your School Library” and its worth more than a brief click. The resources this site contains is worth devoting some time to. I’m actually surprised I have not heard of this site before. (I’m assuming the reason for this is my work in a public library rather than in a SMLS capacity.) I was also introduced to several new names in libraries as third spaces and makerspaces in the library which was very exciting. I plan on spending more time on this site and have bookmarked it for further study.
