Although I was really on the cusp with a few attributes. SO apparently I could be a few different personality types (doesn't surprise me).

Surprisingly this was one of the harder assignments for me to do. I learned I have a hard time talking/writing about myself. It took a while to figure out exactly what I wanted to say or present myself.

I was able to move into a library position in a school that I have worked at for 8 years. I would say, most people know this about me, but it would be useful for newer teachers, who might be afraid to approach me about collaborating. I remember as a first year teacher I was afraid that it would mean adding to someone else's plate or come of looking like I didn't know what I was doing. I think putting this out there for newbie teachers is a great way to let them, know that collaborating is not a burden for me; it's how I thrive as an educator!]]> 2021-09-04 20:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1716844363 Margaret Cuthbertson https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1717720181 I enjoyed making this Powtoon. It was my first time using this product and I thought that it was fun and engaging.
Funny, I have done the personality tests a lot recently for different classes and they all tend to be similar. I am a helper and over commit.
I know that when I am planning with teachers that I need to make sure that I am not over committing myself helping them, because that will not help me.
For this project I made the Powtoon for the staff at my school.
I plan to work with Powtoon in the future as a way to create engaging "advertisements" or book talks. ]]> 2021-09-05 19:35:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1717720181 Devan Herron dlherron https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1722180580 This assignment has helped me in a time where I have been experiencing a lot of self-doubt and struggling in a new role. I have learned about what I need, as well as what I can offer to my school.

In the future, I think this is a perfect video to share not only to new teachers, but as a beginning of the year reminder to our school staff.

In this case, my audience consists of the teachers at my school. I'd like to make an alternative version of this video for the students to see as well. I want them to know how I can help them, while they can learn a little bit about me.

I will use this to share to my teachers and hope that they can learn about what I can do to help them, and how we can collaborate. Once things get settled with technology distribution at my school, I hope to have a mini library orientation for the teachers so they can see what my goals are too. My school hasn't had a media coordinator in almost two years, so I think everyone can benefit from a reminder of what our media center mission is. ]]> 2021-09-07 15:14:16 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1722180580 Julie Jackson jajack22 https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1723045016 I created this video using PowToon. I had never used PowToon before, but I found it to be fun and easy to use. It was a little challenging to condense everything I wanted to say to under 2 minutes.

I was not really surprised by my Jung's typology test results, but I was surprised by the percentages. I learned that I only have a slight preference for "feeling" over "thinking". I also learned that I have a high need for achievement, but not necessarily recognition, according to the needs assessment.

My audience for the video is the staff at my school. I began working as the SLMC at my school last November, so I am still fairly new. Many teachers still see my role as that of just checking out books and providing tech support. I am hoping this video will change teachers' perceptions to see me as an instructional partner. I plan to show this video to the staff at professional development that I will be leading later this month. ]]> 2021-09-07 22:29:10 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1723045016 Jon Newkirk https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1730344818 This project was probably one of the more difficult ones I have had because I don't like talking about myself. However, I can see the importance of this type of communication and have considered using it in my current classroom. The Jung/Myers Briggs results were interesting because they were not only spot on but also pretty close to the results I had the last time I took the assessment.

This type of tool would be helpful for all teachers/faculty to use in their classrooms. I "know" the teachers in my building, but I don't really know a lot about them at the levels that we used for this assignment. This information would be useful to understand how to better collaborate with my colleagues. While we developed this to foster our collaborative partnerships with our teaching partners, I think this would be useful in the regular classroom to use with the students. Had I known this information about some of my teachers, I would have had a better understanding of their quirks and they way they approached their students.

I can't wait to use this tool in my classroom (and eventual library)!]]> 2021-09-10 07:51:46 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1730344818 Kim Diezel https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732574183 I had not taken a personality test in a few decades, and was a bit skeptical of it. When I saw my results for Meyers-Briggs, I was insulted to see that my largest score, 47%, was Judging! That had very negative connotations for me. Yikes! I took a breath and read through the explanations on the website. I was surprised to see how accurate that label really is for me; I do prefer my environment to be orderly, I do make lists and plans and enjoy seeing them through to completion. The Hartzell quiz was equally accurate when it described me as needing to feel part of a team and taking on too many projects at once.

I will be more careful as I collaborate with teachers to guide them to see me as a facilitator rather than someone to do their work for them. One of the ways that I have done this so far is to walk them through searching the Destiny catalog on our school's website. This enables them to browse available books themselves, rather than say, "Please bring me a book about Autumn." I'm glad to provide reader's advisory services, but teachers need to make their own choices, too.

My audience will be the 28 classroom teachers that I serve. I will tweak this project to include more of the services that are available to teachers as well as guidance that I can provide about using resources, rather than just offering to make their lives easier and ending up overfilling my plate.]]> 2021-09-11 13:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732574183 Cara Babitz https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732590348 I really enjoyed this project. I already knew my personality type and in the past I tended to focus on my weaknesses. This time I really looked at my strengths and which ones would be best to put to use to help my teachers.

I created an infographic because it's quick and easy. This is something I can stick in teacher boxes and I can also put it up in our various workrooms around the school.

I kept it short and sweet, to the point. At the beginning of the year teachers are swamped with so much information. I think more teachers will read this because it's not information overload.

]]> 2021-09-11 13:33:36 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732590348 Amanda Dyer abdyer https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732704094 This was fun to put together. I have already done a couple of personality tests this school year, and this one lined up with the others. I do think that, depending on the situation, I lean into a couple of the traits in different ways. I am much more of a gold personality at school and tend to lean towards the introvert and type 9 in social situations and at home.
I decided to create an infographic because it is a quick and easy way to share information. Since I am new to the school and haven't had the chance to meet everyone and introduce myself yet, I plan to email this out to our staff. I will also link it to my school webpage. ]]> 2021-09-11 15:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732704094 Chelsea Robinette https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732787002 Here is my infographic I created. I plan to email it out to the staff and also post it on the library door. If we start using our shared bulletin board again in the main office, I'll post it there also. ]]> 2021-09-11 16:59:24 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732787002 Lauren Mirabelli https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732916403 This is my second year as a SLMC and my first at my current school. While I am still meeting and learning about everyone and the school itself, I am excited to start collaborating with classroom teachers. I typically tend to focus on my areas of need rather than my strengths, but for this assignment I wanted to present myself in the best light possible in order to be the instructional partner I would like to be. I plan on sharing my infographic with the staff and am hopeful that they will want to contact my about collaboration in the near future.
I was not surprised by my results on either of the assessments. "Strong desire to be needed and useful" was something I have known about myself for a long time and according to Hartzell's assessment I have strong affiliation needs. ]]> 2021-09-11 19:58:00 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1732916403 Perry Anthony https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1733003023 I chose to make an infographic! I used easel.ly to make it (although I may just have to go all in on a Canva subscription soon.) I was thinking of using Powtoon for a change but I really get annoyed at royalty free music. Infographics are becoming more my speed. Powtoon will come later. I also used Bitmoji for the first time! Now I see what all the fuss is about.

The Hartzell's Needs Assessment was a new one for me. However the results were not surprising and neither was the Jung Typology results (ISFJ). I've always been an introverted and loyal person. As the Need's Assesment showed, I really do put a higher priority on being liked over the other two needs. That part of myself is a little annoying but I counter it by thinking, "Of course you want people to like you. It makes the days go by so much easier when people like being around you." I think I can be a great asset and collaborator because I want whats best for others and I believe in making things work.

I will most definitely use this when I get hired! I am so pleased how it turned out. The audience will be the staff at the school. I'll probably email it to the staff when the opportunity arises.

]]> 2021-09-11 22:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1733003023 Mary Coggins marymasoncoggins https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1733814256 I really like personality assessments because I always feel like I learn something new about myself. The last time I took Jung's test, way back in my undergrad years, I was an INFJ, and, interestingly enough, I've somehow converted to an ENFJ in the last 6 years. I'm choosing to accredit this change to several years in customer service related jobs and probably to growing more comfortable with myself and confident in my actions as I've grown older.

I think this is a really great tool to introduce myself as a professional and a collaborator. Since I'm not working in a school yet, this is definitely something I plan to use in job applications and hopefully in the future to introduce myself to coworkers.

This is kind of blending projects a little bit, but the teacher I spoke with for the collaborative interview said that she loves her school librarian, but had to seek out the librarian and find out on her own that the library was a resource for her curriculum. In my future program, this video is definitely something I want to share with teachers to show that I am looking to be actively involved in their classes and the ways in which I can be available. ]]> 2021-09-12 14:58:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1733814256 Alyssa Papia ampapia https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1733901013

As a Psychology major, I have taken the Jung Typology Test many times in the past. Although my results have changed a bit over the years, they have typically been extremely accurate. I enjoyed creating this infographic.

I learned that knowing the different aspects of my personality as well as my strengths and weaknesses can help when working with others. In the past, I may have viewed my weaknesses as a negative thing but I have learned that I can frame my weaknesses in a positive manner. Being an INFJ with a strong need for achievement as well as affiliation, I learned that collaboration is something that I enjoy but I also need time to myself to decompress.

In the future, I will remember these aspects of my personality and ensure that I consider them when working with others. I often have the tendency to be very selfless and get hyper-focused on the task at hand but understanding how I tick will help me to help others.

My audience is the teachers at the middle school in which I work. I wanted to make this infographic simple and eye-catching because I know that a lot of people do not always read signs. I thought of this more as a conversation starter that brings people in the door and gets them to start thinking about how I can help them.

I will use this in my program by putting it on both doors to the library as well as on my desk.

I am usually a Powtoons users but wanted to try something different. I will hang this in my office for teachers to be able to relate and connect with me for their needs.
The Jung Typology Test and Hartzell's personality test were right on track with all the other personality test that I have taken in my lifetime.
As we grow older and wiser, I felt it may have changed but I am a ESFJ. I agreed with all the descriptions about me except a few.
I definitely like order and strive in structure so when we suddenly shut down the schools and I had to scramble to not only get chromebooks out to students but become a tech specialists as well my life turned upside down. I don't like to lose control of what is going on around me and I had to step back and take a minute to figure out a new plan.
It also stated that I dislike change and I disagree with that part of the test. I have implemented many changes in my media center since I have taken over two years ago and loved the challenge that came with making those changes. ]]> 2021-09-12 18:45:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1734067448 Erika Thompson esthompson5 https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1734080297 I enjoyed being able to reflect on my personality and how I can use my strengths to best serve the staff and students at my school. I think a snapshot of yourself great thing to have as a new media coordinator. I plan to use this portrait to easily communicate with staff and will hopefully open up additional opportunities to serve and support.

I have learned that I make decision everyday using my feelings more so than my thoughts. This may or may not be a bad thing; however, in education I feel it is essential to have compassion and feeling behind what you do everyday.

I think my detailed orientated personality will be able to support staff by providing insight and different perspectives to new ideas.

I used Canva to create my infographic. I plan to use our schools poster maker and place this poster outside of my library. I also plan to place this on my website. The test were very accurate and I also was shock with the results. I plan on evaluating some of my skills and make some adjustments. This was very helpful for me. ]]> 2021-09-13 02:48:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1734732281 Brittany Weston https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1737059340 For this project I decided to make an infographic using canva. The staff at my school likes information delivered to them in a quick and easy manner. So, I thought an infographic would be the best way to get all of the information in one place.

I have taken many personality test in the past few years and my results tend to vary between being introverted and extroverted. I guess it all depends on how I am feeling when I take the quiz. This time I got ENFJ as my personality type. I really tried to pull the parts of this that would make me most beneficial to my staff as a collaborator and supportive team member.

]]> 2021-09-13 18:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1737059340 Coley Barrier https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1740535588 I enjoyed working on this project. I recently got a new job at a library, so it was helpful for me to think about what I would want to send out to the teachers to get to know me. I scoured many different sites looking for options as to what I wanted, but ultimately decided on PowToon after a peer told me she had used it and liked it.

I learned recently for another class (and then again for this class) that I am a ISFJ. On the Kiersey scale that means I am a Protector. The words associated with it make me think that I truly am labeled as this (especially the introvert part!).

I think this is a great way to share information about myself and what I can present to my school. It includes a lot of information that gives a clear view of who I am. I think teachers will find that helpful in getting to know who their media specialist is.

My audience specifically in my mind is the group of teachers in my school (and admin and other groups at a school).

I look forward to being able to use this as I begin a new position at a new school. I think it's a great way to introduce myself and for them to get to know me.]]> 2021-09-14 19:26:15 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1740535588 Ginger Pinckard gmpinckard https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1741236258 I’m new to so much of the technology options, that I tend to play with a free one until it doesn’t work, but I get to work out the idea kinks. When I finalize, it is easier than I originally thought, and enjoy the design aspect of it. I can’t wait to put some of them into practice.

I have learned that my working personality is different than it used to be. I always came away from Meyer’s Briggs training in my previous career as an ENFP. When it calculated ENFJ this time, I took the test twice several days apart to make sure it was accurate. Looking at the explanations, I see how I used to be a P, but now I’m a J. It’s amazing how life can train you to acclimate. In the library, however, my traits are easier to apply. NF’s can be seen as inefficient team members because they enjoy the team so much! (totally not my evaluation, something someone told me years ago.)

I liked the portions of the personality explanations that told you how to work with different types. This worked very well in my previous career with engineers & architects (who knew they don’t get along LOL) I will use this when planning a meeting, or proposing an idea. I liked getting to know more about Canva. I’ve used it for several assignments and I love INFOGRAPHICS!! In our world today, no one has time to sit through lots of meetings, or prepare a face to face commercial with each staff member. Short, sweet, catchy, inviting, love them.

My audience (although I’m not currently working) is the staff at an elementary school, mostly the teachers that I would like to encourage to collaborate with me.

My short .mp4 could be played on a loop on media center digital signage or school hallway announcement monitors, or simply attached in an email. It could also be printed as a poster on the media center entrance doors or in meeting rooms.

]]> 2021-09-15 01:53:34 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1741236258 Monet Hardison https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1741419231 I consider myself to be very blessed to work as a librarian at the same high school I taught English for 2 years. My colleagues already know me, my personality, my teaching style, and passion for education. However, I am fully aware that I may not always work at HTHS. This infographic and video can be easily edited to introduce myself as a friendly, collaborative librarian to a new team of teachers, should I change job locations.

I created my project using Canva (graphic) and Screencastify (video). I have used both resources before, but not to introduce myself. As I was creating my presentation, I actually thought about modifying this for my students, and having them create a graphic to introduce themselves to me/other teachers!

I took both personality tests, and I agreed with my Hartzell results of "having a strong need for achievement, not wanting total control, and being a friendly person." I also agreed with my Carl Jung results that I rely on my feelings more than anything else in the world! I do think the results were slightly skewed because it described me as introverted, but I (and my family/friends would agree) am very extroverted. I think I just needed some "space" after a long day at work. Having my students complete this personality quiz would also be an interesting and fun way to get to know them!

I am a very social and extroverted individual (despite my Jung results), so I certainly plan on "playing up" those traits in terms of getting to know teachers and building connections. I will also need to be mindful that my excitable nature may be off-putting/overwhelming to some educators and students, especially if I'm co-teaching a lesson to a group of high schoolers at 8:30am. I need to "read the room" to make sure my teachers and students feel comfortable around me as we work together on various assignments.

The audience for my infographic/video would be teachers at my high school. Since they already know me, I would definitely use the infographic/video for new teachers to our school. I could send it to them in an email, along with their login and staff chromebook information.

It made me it down and really think about what I have to offer to my students and my staff. I learned from this project that I have so much to offer. When I was creating my infographic, I tried to narrow down my abilities to the basics. I find out too often that some teachers still think our only job is to check out books to our students. We get this a lot with our newer teachers. I tried my best not to overwhelm my audience (new teachers) with a boatload of information. I wanted them to know that they can come to the media center and ask for collaborative, tech, and translation help. I plan to send this infographic out to our new teachers so they can know that I am here help and hopefully ease their transition into their new job. ]]> 2021-09-15 17:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1743561070 Rachel Stinehelfer https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1743848380 I have done some of the personality testing before I am usually end up as an ENFJ/P. I am definitely an extrovert and a person who loves being creative. The actual project itself is rarely as exciting to be as the brainstorming, so I will absolutely have to be sure that I follow through.

When I took the teaching personality test, I did not end up with one type really for me and I think that is because I do try to adapt my teaching/behavior based on the class. It REALLY stretches me to be teaching 5 year olds on up to 13 year olds. Some days I am better than others. I know that taking these graduate class to get my license (as I already have an MLIS) is supposed to inspire me, but I often come away not sure that this is the right fit for me. Possibly I am in the wrong age group. I like to be a positive and energetic go-getter. Perhaps it is COVID teaching, family stress, age, the job --- who knows. I think if I were doing this work in a vacuum I would be more creative and inspired.

As far as my infographic goes … I do not really like making movies. It also seems to up expectations. I am not as tech savvy and find that my skill set is in the actual process of inquiry. I am not an expert. I want to be the friendly face and a real colleague, but I do not have all the answers. I want to be competent. That is my goal.

Reflection: After taking the two self-assessments, I was not surprised to find that I’m mostly an introvert that looks to be somewhat in control. When working with a group I am very flexible, however, when it comes to my job and/or my family I need to know what is going on and who is doing what. I used PowToon because I have used it in the past and it’s super simple and easy!

I did find it interesting that I scored so high in the area of wanting feedback, but when I think about it, I do look to my husband and principal to get their thoughts on situations before making final decisions. As my own children often say - “You’re mom. Why do you have to ask dad?” It’s not because I need to, but more I’m almost checking myself to make sure if what I’m thinking makes sense, if that makes any sense at all!

I don’t think this project will affect my ability to plan with others more than I do now. When working with groups, I try to be very flexible. I listen to what others need or feel comfortable with and then adjust my work accordingly. If I feel strongly about something, I do bring it up but just as a (here’s a suggestion), not a you must do this, this way.

My audience will be my principal when I ask him to advocate for our need for a virtual school librarian position next year!

I will post this on my website to showcase what I can do and what I’m looking forward to doing with teachers, students, and their families.

I created this with my school staff in mind, and could attach this to our weekly newsletter or even post it on my door or desk. This assignment helped me reflect on how I can communicate my weaknesses professionally -- I knew what they were, I just feel awkward advertising them (or admitting them, heh).

Covid challenges, staff shortages, new lesson planning requirements, and so much more continues to amplify teacher stress daily. So often, we don’t even know where to reach for help. I hope this infographic helps communicate that I’m a resource they can use!

I always collaborate on the S'more with my Principal so I'm hoping my link will work on there! Additionally, I live stream our morning news and announcements daily with my student News crew. I thought about sneaking this spark video in for the teachers one day! My main goal is to let the teachers know that I want to collaborate and that we can find ways around the lack of time we have to plan. I want my teachers to see me as an extension of what they are teaching our students. ]]> 2021-09-16 00:37:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1744291192 fslong https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1746542802 I'm a little bit of a perfectionist and it took a while for me to get my infographic the exact way that I liked it. It's my first time creating a project using Adobe Spark and it was pretty fun and easy to use.
I took the Myer's Brigg again because I had taken it back in 2009 for work at the casino and I thought there was a possibility that I had changed. Nope. It's still the same. INFJ.
There is so much to write about and it was hard to condense it into the small sections but I think it has everything that I wanted to include.
I have been in my position for five years now and I am still learning new things every day. The one thing that doesn't change is the fact that the kids I work with need adults that they can trust and that love them.
The audience is for my classmates and coworkers. I can use it at the next in-service training as an introduction for my position in the department. ]]> 2021-09-16 16:51:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1746542802 Zoey King zabalok https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1788075146 I did learn some great new tips on how to handle communication with others. I was aware that I saw life through rose colored glasses so that was nice to see. I saw that I lead with emotion and I often reflect that in my conversations with others. I know that sometimes in the work place others may not feel comfortable talking about their emotions or how they feel about a certain topic, this may cause issues during co teaching for me. My audience was my staff at my school. We all enjoy using Bitmoji within Google classroom so I know they would enjoy this layout. I enjoy making Bitmoji classrooms and found it very easy to do. I will be coming back in the future to add more. I will link this classroom onto our main page for our staff hub.]]> 2021-10-03 23:02:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tsgruer/portraitofacollboratorFALL21/wish/1788075146
