TL as a leader

Well we have our groups and I have been in contact with 2 of the students . I think we will get along fine and they are keen to get going. Have had a play with the wiki and communicated thru chat and wiki to Bethany and Susan. When ever anyone asks my topic eg TL as a leader, I say we are middle managers, We lead from the middle. We are not in an authoritive position but have influence and contact with the whole staff and all students in the school on a regular basis making us perhaps the most influential member of staff. We are teaching explicit information seeking skills, involved in linking IL skills to the curriculum making it relevant to their learning. We are responsible for ensuring collaborative planning and teaching takes place and it is important that we get that message out to the rest of the staff and the teachers in general. This would be a good topic to follow up for assignment one, maybe a title TL, How managing from the middle can help you in your school! or words to that effect.
