20 Skills - nicely done

Checking the blog "The Shifted Librarian" turned up the link to the article "20 Technology Skills Every Educator Should Have" by Laura Turner from T.H.E.Journal Online, published in June 2005. [I know, sometimes I'm a little slow.] One really neat thing about the article is that it contains links to tutorials or help on acquiring the skills. Read the article!

Here is the list:
1. Word Processing Skills
2. Spreadsheets Skills
3. Database Skills
4. Electronic Presentation Skills
5. Web Navigation Skills
6. Web Site Design Skills
7. E-Mail Management Skills
8. Digital Cameras
9. Computer Network Knowledge Applicable to your School System
10. File Management & Windows Explorer Skills
11. Downloading Software From the Web (Knowledge including eBooks)
12. Installing Computer Software onto a Computer System
13. WebCT or Blackboard Teaching Skills
14. Videoconferencing skills
15. Computer-Related Storage Devices (Knowledge: disks, CDs, USB drives, zip disks, DVDs, etc.)
16. Scanner Knowledge
17. Knowledge of PDAs
