<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Olivia,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have struggled with “Instance” and have to refer to my cheat note occasionally: “Manifestation of intellectual content” – meaning it could be physical or digital, so this is where containers enter (for physical objects) and also description
about format. I’m not handling digital objects at this point, either.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The conceptual model takes getting used to in the beginning, but as someone else pointed out, once the concepts are more clear, the terminology should be less of a “thing.” The other nice thing is that one can mouse over labels in Aspace
and the application often provides helpful additional information about the term.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Throwing this out to the group because training is of immediate and scary concern. One of the things that I am acutely aware of is that our staff is going to have to get used to new terminology and fast to be able to use ASpace. Lingo is
going to be a big barrier to access.<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What have been some of your conceptual/terminology roadblocks in terms of staff training?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Things I know I will have to explain as new terminology/conceptual reframing are included as headers below. I'm laying my work bare here, but I'm thinking that the crowdsourcing could be useful here. We've got people at varied levels of
technical proficiency. I was thinking of an informal cheat sheet.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Did you make a cheat sheet for ASpace lingo for staff training? Am I not including some conceptual leaps here? Did you have ASpace terminology you had to explain in multiple ways?<o:p></o:p></p>
