I enjoy interacting with students in this way. It makes them more likely to approach me in the library, makes them realize I will take their research VERY seriously, and allows them to see different sides of me.<br /><br />Plus, it's a great way to connect with faculty and departments!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061870849031468581.post-6708778551090574362012-01-12T11:26:26.614-05:002012-01-12T11:26:26.614-05:00I'd love to teach a college-level class.

My most recent experience has been teaching a 3 credit hour First Year Seminar here at Defiance. I agree that it is an excellent outreach tool for both faculty and students. I jumped into the deep end of Moodle pool this past semester, so that I would be better prepared to help faculty if they had Moodle questions going forward. <br /><br />The only negative aspect for me has been failing students. I often feel like I have failed, because they have failed. I also have concerns that those students will associate the bad grade with the library guy who gave it to them and not seek help from me, or anyone in the library, in the future.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09621434585011178636noreply@blogger.com
