Telling Stories through Social Media · GlenBull · Storify - 0 views

  •  
    This article was published in Learning and Leading with Technology (lovingly referred to as L&L in Ed Tech world).  I try not to just list every new website I 'stumble upon' but only the ones that look as if they might actually be used by teachers.  Storify might just be one of the keepers.

      Yes!  This is exactly what we are thinking!
  • school officials will strive for a philosophical, functional, and physical merger of the school library with the IT program, with a faculty center and spaces for staff development, as well as spaces where teachers can work with (and learn from) students, school librarians, and IT staff; and
  • beyond the library walls
  • viewed primarily as a cost, rather than as an investment,
  • trying to create a good program by simply redesigning space without paying attention to staffing.
  • Teaching people to effectively find and use information to meet their needs.”
  • the 21st century school library must look beyond tradition to the future, to what is needed to help fulfill the educational mission, goals, and objectives of the school.
  • he library will be a sacred space dedicated to honoring those who use the library to meet whatever informational, educational, socialization and personal needs they might have.
  • broadest mission

  • Involve the stakeholders
  • Be adventurous,
  • complex
  • And I always say, design for the technologies that are available NOW, not those just over the horizon. The horizon might be further away than you anticipate.
  • libraries and librarians are needed now more than ever
  • a mix of print and non-print materials
  • consider providing more space for instructional purposes.
  • As much as possible we should be designing flexible spaces so that space required today for book storage can easily be converted for other purposes in the future.
  • he emphasis must be on the quality of the collection, not the quantity.

      Is this still true?
  • quiet reflection will remain a need of humans for a very long time.

      Hence our 'requirement' that both teachers and students work on their portfolios at the end of a unit after using the MALT Center.
  • The glut of information that keeps expanding overwhelms most people, and libraries and librarians are needed to help guide and teach students and teachers to cope.

Working as a Team for Student Success: The Middle to High School Transition - Transform... - 0 views

  • Bring the middle and high school administrators, teachers, and counselors together to learn about the courses, curriculum, and requirements of each school; to develop a mutual understanding about the young adolescent; and to create a smooth transition plan. Include input from students and parents. Include in the transition plan visits to the new school, counseling, and summer experiences that help students acclimate to their new schools.Plan activities that provide incoming students with social support, including opportunities to develop relationships with other incoming students and with older students.Provide an advisory program that assigns each student with an advisor or mentor — an adult advocate. Put significant, purposeful effort into engaging parents and families in the school. Parent and caregiver involvement tends to decrease in the middle grades and even more so during the transition to high school. Provide activities throughout the school year that involve students from both the middle and high schools. Peer mentoring programs that connect a ninth grader or older student with an incoming eighth grader are a popular way to accomplish this.

PBL Academies | Project Based Learning - 1 views

  •  
    It would be AWESOME if some our our colleagues attended this conference. Just a reminder that our course reimbursement pays for most of the cost of a national conference like this. I'm going to ISTE this year, but this conference looks great. I wonder if teachers might plan ahead for next year and use their credits this way instead of taking courses (unless you want to take mine on PBL!)
