Really enjoyed a Communication Coordinators meeting at the DCMO SLS yesterday. Very professional presentations from OverDrive and NewsBank, but I was particularly taken with what I learned from Jesi Buell, the Instructional Design Librarian at Colgate University.
First, I learned that such a positions exit in the world and then I learned about the expertise she brings together to create "digital learning objects;" interactive digital experiences for learners. Her niche in the domain of libraries is of growing importance; as is her expertise in library science, coding, and visual design in creating effective objects. Her willingness to help mentor our system's efforts to "bridge the gap" between high school and college skills was enough to convince me to get on board with the initiative. Plus, the chance to learn and use software like Adobe Captivate looks like too much fun to miss!
