I think your HMW question is perhaps one of the most integral questions for 21st century secondary eduction. High schools in the near future will have to radically reimagine the role of librarians in the same ways that Universities have done over the past 15 years.

I think the fact that you have amended your HMW so that you can have time to do what you feel is important in the classroom is a GREAT IDEA. And as the wise @lmustard said, you still will be getting a lot out of the Cohort experience, irrespective of what your HMW is.

See you at the next F2F.

RE: library advocacy- perhaps create a two fold scavenger hunt for students, to a) find 10 books in the library based on given clues, and b) find an expert/staff member in the school to discuss concepts or resources the book offers (document this meeting/discussion somehow). This would allow…Read more

I look forward to getting all the librarians together in the room to help you tackle it.

I loved your questions and curiosity in the Diigo carousel! I think you’re definitely on a path and part of the excitement is seeing where that path will lead you. Don’t be afraid to bushwhack once in a while, because that’s where the real magic happens!

I think we forget sometimes how much effort it takes to try something new and take that step forward. When we do we don’t take the time to pat ourselves on the back but rather look forward to the next step. Be proud of where how far you have come and the fact that you want…Read more

And in terms of celebrating reading, the librarian at our school has played an essential role.

I think about the most important parts of school and really helping students WANT to read the world through books is one of the most nobel endeavours we can undertake as teachers. And perhaps even more relevant now that there are so many other worthwhile distractions. I find…Read more
