Remixing Your LMC for Digital Youth

A 21st Century Teaching Workshop


Saturday, January 31, 2009

8:00am - 12:00pm

Bedford Middle School

 

About the Workshop:
A variety of digital content, including video, podcasts, eBooks and gaming, are all becoming important parts of LMC collections. Find out about this exciting new content and take advantage of the opportunity to explore it yourself. Bill Derry and David Bilmes attended the School Library Journal Summit, held in Florida in November 2008. The goal of the summit is to create a vision of what the school library will look like in 2013. Bill and David will share information, ideas and resources they brought back with them from the Summit. With four computer labs available for the hands-on portion of the program, everyone will get a chance to go online.
