  • reading bubble will be larger in schools with a large percentage of students who are not testing at grade leve
  • library media programs have intrinsic reading motivation and free volunteer reading as their core contributions to a school's reading program
  • providing and promoting high interest materials at a variety of reading levels that meet a variety of developmental needs, we will create kids who not only can read by want to read.

  • in schools where there is no separate "technology integration specialist" available to students and teachers. This is also more prevelant at the secondary level.
  • An increasing number of schools seem to be emphasising technology as a focus
  • teach the educational application of technology tools, not just the applications themselves
  • our programs acknowledge our roles as reading and tech teachers, but we empahsis the application of these skills in an IL model that helps solve real problems and answer genuine questions.
  • the larger the information literacy bubble, the more opportunity library media specialists and teacher will have to address these areas both formally and informally
  • The best library program is the one that best supports the needs and goals of its school. It doesn't get much simpler than that.

    Excellent stimulus article for Senior English novel analysis - the reader's different expectations of male and female characters in books, and some author's views on the restrictions this places on them. Should we forgive ourselves for liking or disliking a character - and is it sufficient motivation for us to read the novel?

technology gamification Web 3.

shared by Robin Cicchetti on 20 Mar 11 - No Cached
  • His take on the education system, for example, is that it is a badly designed game: students compete for good grades, but lose motivation when they fail. A good game, by contrast, never makes you feel like you've failed: you just progress more slowly. Instead of giving bad students an F, why not start all pupils with zero points and have them strive for the high score?

      How can this idea be applied to information skills and school libraries?
  • a consultant on cyber-crimefighting speaks with undisguised joy about how much information the police could glean from Facebook, in order to infiltrate communities where criminals might lurk. Asked about privacy concerns, she replies: "Yeah – we'll have to keep an eye on that."
  • Until recently, the debate over "digital distraction" has been one of vested interests: authors nostalgic for the days of quiet book-reading have bemoaned it, while technology zealots have dismissed it. But the fusion of the virtual world with the real one exposes both sides of this argument as insufficient, and suggests a simpler answer: the internet is distracting if it stops you from doing what you really want to be doing; if it doesn't, it isn't.

    Fascinating article about the next generation of the ubiquitous web and the implications. Good definition of "gamification." This is excellent background information for strategic planning and discussing the potential implications on education.
