The document discusses how libraries can promote transliteracy skills in students. Transliteracy involves reading, writing, and interacting across various platforms and tools. The author argues that libraries should sponsor transliteracy by creating participatory learning environments that support knowledge sharing, collaboration, and student ownership over learning. Specific strategies mentioned include using tools like blogs, social bookmarks, and cloud computing to facilitate conversations and network learning. The goal is for students to develop personal learning networks and digital literacy skills to succeed in an information-rich world.

131. “The progress they have made as independent learners and critical thinkers has been rewarding to watch. It has been such a stretch for them to move from “learned helplessness” where they are totally dependent on their teachers to “resourceful thinker” where they can access information and accept responsibility for their own learning.” Susan Lester
132. “I can actually say that I have changed for the better. I have never had such a life changing research topic and this definitely has changed my life. I couldn’t believe how much this research project affected me. It definitely forced me to look at myself and made me ask myself what I could do better in my life to help impact other people. I feel that this research that I have done will make a huge difference to others because they too will see what they can do to help others. I hope that by reading my essay, others will decide to devote their time and life to helping those that are in need.” 10th grade student
133. “I realized that we all need to be more aware of things going on in places other than our backyard. We should be concerned with the well being of everyone and not just the people within our borders. I've heard the phrase "it only take s one person to make a difference" my whole life. But, I've never considered myself to be that one person. And I've just been waiting for someone else to do something. I believe that most of Americans are like that. However that needs to change.“ 10th grade student
