Library Departmental Focus 2019-2020

Submitted by: Jenniger Hubert

Documenting the “story” of the preK-12 curriculum. Committing to focused look at curriculum as a means to better understand the efficacy teaching/learning in the department.

Integrating digital literacy throughout the curriculum, not as stand alone lessons as we are doing now.

Considering collection  development with an eye towards supporting differentiated learners, which includes genrefication, e and audio books, and beginning chapter series

We will continue to meet on Tuesdays and one other day on the months we don’t meet during regular faculty time.

2018-2019 Library Departmental Focus

Type of Work Focus: 

      • Documenting the “story” of the preK-12 curriculum 
      • Doing a professional development “deep dive” around some aspect of subject related to progressive practice. This could draw on within department expertise and/or work with an outside consultant

 

Description of Work Focus:  We worked at the end of this year with Ed Tech  to identify where aspects of digital literacy were being taught K-12 and where there were holes we could fill in or collaborate on. We will continue to be in discussion around practical application of digital literacy next year.  

 

Schedule for Work: We may meet as joint departments on Tuesdays and arrange another meeting days as needed.
