Linda and Suzanne did a great job at the training and it really went
very well. Only a tiny bit of confusion, and that's not due to the
trainers but to the system pitfalls! Thanks to them for sending out
the comments on the training.
I believe I'll still let people log in based on my own experience,
which is that if I don't actually key something in, I don't learn it
that well. Perhaps a half dozen excellent examples, like the circuits
one, could be chosen for the practice time. One thing about the
practice time is that it's hard to know who has done which search, and
that's why I still lean toward another stab at having people all
logged on doing the same thing.
No harm in having different styles and collecting observations from
each session to help us over the thorny patches!
Wednesday mornings are really quiet (Anita is always in the Training
Room at this time); should we have people tell us if they plan to
attend or should we just say we'll be here 10:30-11:30?
