I found many items on this site that would be useful for language arts teachers in particular, but really for any subject area. I could use some of the ideas myself. One example is a summer readling list. I have compiled many good lists from various sources every year and posted on my library pages, but this is a good example of the type of thing that could save some time by not re-inventing the wheel! Found useful link to using Diigo as well.

My HS health and nursing teacher is searching for new materials to help with her nutrition unit. These students are often bound for college nursing programs, so this would be a great fit to help prepare these Juniors and Seniors.

One area for which I'm always searching for more resources and information is resources that can be shared with parents and families to support the digital citizenship learning students are doing in the library. Just because most parents many parents are comfortable with technology, that doesn't 'mean they know how to talk to their children about internet safety and ethics. This includes a good list of resources that are available.

This provides a fantastic list of resources for parents (or teachers) to utilize to support the teaching of digital citizenship skills! I'm always looking for tools to share with our families to help them better understand their role in creating good digital citizens at home.

SDPC stands for the Student Data Privacy Consortium. If a district doesn't have a strong vetting procedure in place for online programs/apps, I would recommend teachers start with this source. It allows them to see if and how other districts vetted websites and apps.

This is a site to use when cross-ref DOI #'s or when you find items that appear similar..It goes along with the conversation about permalinks...
