Yes, yes, I agree with all the minuses of AR (and know the pluses also). I even
act as district liaison for the program, especially in the tech realm and see the
between campus issues with it ("that campus does such and such and I thought we
were supposed to or not supposed to.....).
However, getting practical, I also know that the program is not likely to go away
anytime soon as the admins really like it. (Note: It is used only in elementary).
So, my question for the group is, facing this situation -- and I suspect I am not
the only one dealing with this reality -- what might we as librarians do to help
the program run more efficiently, still encourage a love of reading in the
students, and other such questions?
That is, faced with certain realities, how can we help matters?
Just a thought
