"Moon of Two Dark Horses by Sally M. Keehn is a great alternative/complement to Sign of the Beaver. It is not necessarily easier but it is written from the Native perspective."

Digital Wave 2010
I've just jumped into Digital Wave 2010, and I feel exhilarated and frustrated, energized and depleted, curious and skeptical. I love learning and find this Digital Wave especially challenging, mostly because I am not sure how it fits into library media and literacy studies at the lower levels (elementary grades). Like many, I am somewhat addicted to surfing the web and in doing so, find so many of its resources to be supportive yet also overwhelming. As I 'surf' the web, I am constantly…See More

"If librarians check out me on Twitter, maybe they can offer me some suggestions of how to make Twitter of value to a lower school librarian...or should I just use it for brief author/new book announcements, booktalks, etc?"

I run out of time EVERY day - so much I want to still explore and learn and yet the day is done. Learning with technology takes time, and I never feel I've mastered it. There is always one more thing which leads to just one more…"

"Sylvia, the 21st century skills group has so much to offer. I am fascinated with the literacy wiki. My biggest problem is how and when (time) to wade through so much fascinating material!

21st Century Skills
What do we need to do in order to better equip our students to become true leaders in a "flat world" that has both exciting opportunities and challenges at every turn?

I run out of time EVERY day - so much I want to still explore and learn and yet the day is done. Learning with technology takes time, and I never feel I've mastered it. There is always one more thing which leads to just one more "other" thing. However, we have summer for this very reason. Hope you had a nice weekend.
:) Smiling...Syl
