Accolades: Susan Boss, Janet Kremenitzer
Posted 12/19/2005
University Libraries is pleased to announce the promotion of Susan Boss from serials and stacks coordinator to reference and circulation librarian.
Boss has worked at Mortensen Library for six years, beginning as a part-time circulation assistant in 1999. She received her MLS from Southern Connecticut State University in May 2004.
Janet Pickard Kremenitzer, assistant professor of education and coordinator of elementary education, ENHP, presented a peer-reviewed, three-hour workshop at the 2005 annual conference of the National Association for the Education of Young Children on Dec. 7 in Washington, D.C.
The topic of the workshop was "The Emotionally Intelligent Teacher: Leave No Teacher Behind.” The session focused on Kremenitzer's work with both pre-service and in-service teachers on developing their own emotional intelligence abilities.
While attention has been focused on teaching to the "whole child," which includes recent inclusion of social-emotional skills within the school curriculum, little attention has been given to the training of teachers' own social-emotional skills prior to implementing curriculum. Specific hyper-awareness strategies, such as being aware of one’s own emotional state, were discussed and practiced in a format that provided the participants with methods to bring back to their own teacher training programs, and that could be shared with their teacher candidates.
