The panelists were Dr. Joyce Valenza, teacher librarian at the Springfield Township High School in Erdenheim, PA; Shannon Miller, district teacher librarian and technology specialist at the Van Meter (IA) Community Schools; Michelle Luhtala, library department chair, New Canaan (CT) High School; and Brenda Boyer, teacher librarian for the Kutztown (PA) School District. “Curation is the new search,” said Valenza. She explained that curation is defined not by what a library owns, but by what students need and use. Panelists shared their favorite curation tools, including [|Scoop.it], [|MentorMob], [|Pinterest], [|Symbaloo], [|Thinglink], [|EduClipper], and [|EdCanvas]. Speakers encouraged attendees to choose one or two of these tools to be a “parking lot” for library resources rather than trying to use all of them. Making resources easily accessible on mobile devices is also essential, they said, as many schools are adopting BYOD policies or implementing 1:1 initiatives. Participants then described how flipping instruction and curating resources allows librarians to make the most of the time they spend working with students.

[|BBC Resources] [] [|PowerPoint Tips] Hi all, Don’t forget to add any ideas/brainstorms you may have for our group’s work to the “[|bounce card]” on or before next Tuesday, October 9. Just add any literacy ideas you have come up with since our meeting.

Walker has agreed to find the literacy highlight for next week’s blog post. There are openings for the two weeks after that. [|Click here] to view the calendar. We are just looking for a tip you have found from your own research or you can highlight something that is going on within your class, department, or any other colleague dealing with literacy (reading, writing, thinking, speaking, listening). You can type directly in the calendar or, if you prefer, you can email me and I’ll add you.
