Cranston PFE Conclusion



               I learned many technological aspects in this internship that I never imagined I would be learning.  While I have talked with Dell before, I did not know the procedure in a library.  Before this internship, I did not know how to image a computer, therefore making it run faster and learning what goes into resetting it.  I learned about patron privacy on computers as well as their desire for knowledge of the technology they do not know.  From music programs like Spotify to basics such as the mouse, icons, and the internet, people of all ages have a desire to learn.  My internship gave me a chance to discover teaching techniques in a classroom setting that work best, slow talking, repetition of main points, observation of hands up for questions, and more.  My work on the Minecraft project allowed me to observe how different departments work to collaborate together.  It also taught me about what it it takes to bring a new program to a library and how to listen to what the patrons, in this case teen,s say they want.  I feel I could not have picked a more perfect PFE in the end.
