Hit: 3-year plans

[Karen Naftzger <k_naftzger@HOTMAIL.COM>]

Several weeks ago, I promised a hit of the responses I received about my
query concerning 3-year plans and visions you may have for your media
centers.  Alas and alack, there were none, although several of you requested
a hit. Sorry.  What I'll do, though, is include a couple more of the points
we included as part of our action plan.  This was in conjunction with the
technology department and, therefore, has that focus.  One thing we hope to
do is to establish a single platform, rather than have a combination of
various and sundry networked Macs (of different generations) and Gateways
throughout our building.  This certainly would help increase access to
software and, also, facilitate professional development.  Ongoing
professional development is, of course, an important consideration. Next,
our media center has two destination machines obtained several years ago as
part of an LSTA minigrant.  One is stationed pretty much all the time in a
computer lab and the other in the media center when they are not being used
in a classroom for instruction.  They are wonderful but are oh so cumbersome
to move from room to room.  What we would like to do is locate a room where
the media center machine could be set up, and classes would be brought to it
rather than trucking it down the hallways.
