Chapter 1 : Proving Our Worth 
• Proving our worth is becoming more and more developed 
in the education world. Teachers and professionals are 
being strictly evaluated using a variety of strategic 
instruments. TKES, for example, is a brand new teaching 
instrument which evaluates teachers on a number of 
variables. School Counselors (like myself) and media 
specialists have their own instruments, however, more 
pressure is building to justify why our services are valued 
or important.
Chapter 1 continued: Bishop & Salmon 
• Bishop’s attitude rings very true today. It is imperative 
that we help assist and support student learning through a 
process. One of the concepts that sparked my mind was 
Bloom’s Taxonomy. By using these higher order thinking 
skills and scaffolding them from lower order to higher 
order, students learning will “take off” and they will be 
able to think more comprehensively.
Chapter 1: Information & Research 
Skills 
• Information skills (in my opinion) are relatively basic. A 
student defines a question and then simply finds 
information related to that topic. For example, a student 
could find information on “dogs” but then further research 
to gather more relevant and pertinent information about 
specific breeds of dogs. Research is more complex, 
involves more critical thinking skills, and requires a 
student to think more objectively.
Chapter 1: Knapp Project 
• The Knapp project was an amazing idea! Knapp believed 
there should be a partnership between the LMS and the 
faculty to create a harmonious approach to library and 
media skills. Knapp’s project was a foreshadow to how 
many media centers work today. The media specialist 
works hand in hand with the classroom teachers 
developing lessons and successfully addressing Common 
Core standards.
Chapter 2: Latham & Gross 
• It is imperative that children have access to and engage 
with a library media specialist. It’s not enough for test 
scores to echo the importance and justify the value of our 
education today. How can children perform well on these 
comprehensive exams without the basic information and 
research skills they need to accomplish goals? Children 
need to learn vital information skills and develop an 
understanding of research based intuition.
AASL Standards 
• I have a positive experience in reading over the AASL 
Standards. I believe standards are important and shape the 
outcome of our lessons and engagements with children. 
Although standards are important and should be 
addressed, I don’t believe it should be the only guiding 
point for educators to go by.
