Here's Part 2 I have not taken the School Library test in the past year (sorry). But I did take it in '97 and I think it had just changed the year before so hopefully they are using the same test. I'll just fill you in on what I remember, although everyone apparently gets a different version so I'm not sure how helpful this will be! First, I remember there were lots of questions on various review sources. Since middle/high was my area of interest, I drew blanks on the elementary sources. So that's something to think about Second, be sure you are very clear on _Information Power_ I recall many questions on that - but that should be old hat to you by now. And third, if you have taken a SL Administration class lately that will probably help a great deal. I also looked at the review book Praxis put out but the actual test was *far and away* much easier than the review book. Who knows if we are talking about the same book or not - but I remember the book really scared me and the actual test came quite naturally after 2 years of grad school. - Adrienne Ehlert Bashista I took the Praxis II Library/Media last summer. It was not available on computer, I was told only the Praxis I series was computerized. I re-read Information Power before taking the test. I believe that was excellent preparation as much of the test is based upon that source. (I read the first edition.) =96 Deborah Hanenkrant I took the Praxis II: PL&T a year ago last November. I didn't do a lot of studying for it, but remember wishing I had boned up on some of the basic lesson planning and teaching strategies I had learned in college. The one I took did not focus on library at all. The written questions had to do with describing a classroom problem/issue and what could be done about it. Things like what to do about a student who doesn't understand a concept you're trying to teach. Another question I remember was about a teacher who was trying to do a group learning project. It described what he/she did on day 1, day 2, etc. I had to analyze his procedure and tell how I would do it differently, etc. - Cyndi Gates Shannon Murphy smm2p@mtsu.edu Murfreesboro, TN MTSU- Grad Student =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
