Trust, Knowledge, Technology and Place
School’s out for summer, as you’ve probably noticed because of the recent influx of tots and teens participating in your story hours and book clubs. Public librarians with experience in youth outreach will spend this hour sharing what has worked and what has not when it comes to reaching this patron population at their libraries. Bring your own best practices to share with the group as well.
This training, offered in person on November 6, 2014, is the launch of the Colorado State Library's Putting SPELL (Supporting Parents in Early Literacy through Libraries) into Action, a project funded with an IMLS National Leadership Grant.
Lessons from SPELL: Supporting Parents in Early Literacy through Libraries Colorado State Library
Learn research-based, effective strategies to reach low-income parents of children birth-3 using knowledge from existing programs and literature, along with input from parents themselves. Findings from the SPELL project, funded by an IMLS National Leadership Grant, shed important light on the best times, places, and messages for libraries and other organizations that work with families to reach and effectively communicate with low-income parents of children ages 0-3 about early literacy. Presented by Dr. Mary Stansbury and Dr. Duan Zhang of the University of Denver, in partnership with the Colorado State Library.
Takes a brief look at the different types of people who enter the school library, from the school librarian to paraprofessional aides, parent and other volunteers, student aides teachers, administrators and guests, such as authors and public librarians.

If you're suffering from information overload when it comes to what's new in technology and Internet resources for children and young adults, join us as we learn what's new in a nutshell.
Library patrons and non-patrons: Who they are, what their information needs are, what kind of technology they use, and how libraries can meet the varying needs of their patrons.
This is part one of our LIS768 presentation on Teen retention in the library. It looks at the physical library spaces and teen programming (as well as advisory boards.) Marisa and I (Emma) intended to speak, trading time for each slide.
Tune in to hear about the best speakers, programs and events of the 2010 ALA Conference. Learn what the "Hot Topics" of the conference were, how these issues relate to Nebraskans, and how we can address these issues in our libraries.
How libraries are dealing with the changing technological environment, as well as the larger context of Americans’ reading and library habits, and what they expect from libraries in the future.
As the role of the library continues to shift and adapt to the needs of its users, it is important to understand what exactly those needs are. There are some common needs that libraries have traditionally met and for which their communities expect them to provide, such as free access to knowledge and books; however, the types of knowledge and books needed and the way they are accessed vary based on the community being served. I will introduce concepts of user-centered design and usability testing, which can be used to better understand our users and communities, as well as how implementing these concepts in my branch has helped cause a steady and consistent increase in usage for nearly every category of service we provide.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
