The Library Media Specialists in the district along with the Director of Curriculum, Lori, worked on the Library Curriculum today. One of the problems that we are finding is that some teachers are refusing to use technology in their classroom. Or maybe it is not so much refusing than not trusting themselves to use it. With technology changing so fast, for some teachers once they understand a tool, it's seems too late to use it.
Liz and I were able to look over a document from another school district that already compiled for technology and library media. Our plan is to meet with each grade level while they are writing their curriculum to give them benchmarks in technology. We can then also help them brainstorm on the types of activities they could do with their students. This could also lead to collaboration. We think this plan will help our students and our teachers become better users of technology. No we just have to work on their attitudes toward technology.
