Psychological First Aid Webinar 05/21/2020

Speak warmly and genuinely with those you are working with survivors.

Help families create routines and structure: predictability.
Help the survivors by letting them be involved in the decision making process.  Instead of open ended questions, you might want to give them three choices to choose from. 

Validate survivor's thoughts and feelings. 
Express empathy.  So you feel?... It sounds like....
If you get the feeling wrong, apologize and let the survivor clarify or say what they really feel.  
Don't say "I know how you feel"  --- reflect back to them, like it sounds like you feel really sad or upset....
Don't start any sentence with "At least ... [anything]"

Some questions are just unanswerable.  Just stand there (be there). 

Dealing with anger:  Sometimes the will direct at at you, just because you are there.  Validate, but don't take it personally. 

To be empathetic, you need to take care of yourself.  You might just not be able to help at certain times.

We are in "chronic ambiguity" --say I don't know or provide accurate information

Normalize your reactions... we don't feel normal, what your feeling is what is expected or understandable. 
Positive Coping Strategies
How have you gotten through this before? 
What skills or strengths do you have to get through this? 
What do you have control over and what do you not have control over? 

Effective vs. ineffective ways of coping (seeing it in writing can help)

Productivity: Coping with Distraction While Working from Home 4/23/2020

Although this webinar dealt with distractions while working at home, the part about productivity I found particularly useful.  '

Focus blockers
Freedom https://freedom.to
Self Control Https://selfcontrolapp.com (free for Macs)
Focus (for Mac) : https://heyfocus.com

Figure out your own circadian rhythm. When do you work the best and have the most energy?  Use that time to do your "deep work" and save the other time for "shallow work."  
Deep Work
Writing
Curriculum development 
Strategizing
Planning/Forecasting
Make a video/image/instructional materials
Flowcharts
Researching  
Lesson Planning
Reading/Studying

Shallow Work
Email
grading
Data Entry
Scheduling/Calendaring
Editing (?)
Marketing
Purchasing
Book orders
LibChat
Registering
Blogging

Our brains can only focus for so long.  Deep work will make us feel more tired.
Admit, I can only do this much today.
52 min. work, 17 min. break

Deep work: “Professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that push your cognitive capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value, improve your skill, and are hard to replicate.”- Cal Newport

Shallow work: Noncognitively demanding, logistical-style tasks, often performed while distracted. These efforts tend not to create much new value in the world and are easy to replicate.” Cal Newport

Notes from APA webinar 2/13/2020

• Use reference templates.
• Gov't agency= include the specific agency name
• 20 authors in ref, if 21 list the first 19  . . . last author
• 3 or more authors (in text) Martin et al.

Helpful Hints 

1. Document type: rely on that, it's how you cite.
2. Retrieval method does not matter.
3. Webpage = document type.   Websites and webpages category is your last resort.
4. Online and print references are identical. May not have a URL.
5. Cite what you see
6. 2 format patterns:
7. Adapting APA style

 http://crossref.org to find doi
Cite as: https://doi.org/

• Use links that work for readers (outside of your institution)
• Retrieval dates: Only for works designed to change and not archived (wikis, OERs, online dictionaries. (basically work that is not stable and may change)
• No author: Could be a nonprofit.  Look at "about us" or Author
•  Personal Communication -  does NOT go on the reference list
• Limited circulation you don't usually list the databases, but sometimes you might for things from ERIC or Proquest Theses

Stack Mat: How they show where the books are


--Session 3:  A New Discovery – Marketing Primo to Faculty and Students, by Rocco Cremonese (Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania)

The name "Discovery" didn't work very well.  
In hindsight would have called it OneSearch or FindEverything
Use "student friendly" language


Used Libwizard to make a tutorial for Primo
https://sru.libwizard.com/f/FindLibraryItems

Video tutorials are very hard to keep up to date because of the more frequent updates to Primo/Alma.
