The document proposes strategic substitutes for traditional library terms to emphasize the library's role in education. It suggests replacing "information" with "education" or "research", "reference" with "research", and "circulation" with "loan" or "borrow". Libraries should position themselves as vital components of their community's education system. Their mission involves three pillars: self-directed education through collections, research assistance and instruction, and instructive experiences through events.

This document provides guidance and activities for supporting English learners during after school programs. It discusses using supper time and homework time to practice English. For supper, it recommends facilitating conversations using sentence stems about food and introducing new vocabulary. For homework time, it suggests promoting academic language, discussing common slang terms, and creating thesaurus charts. Activities include role-playing conversations in different situations to demonstrate adjusting language appropriately. The goal is providing opportunities for English learners to develop both informal and academic English skills.

Cross-Institutional Partnerships for City Scale Learning Ecologies - Digital ...
Rob DiRenzo, Alex Molina, Sybil Madison-Boyd, Rafi Santo, Clare Bertrand
Expanded Learning Opportunities are reshaping when, where, and how student learning occurs. A well-designed and well-implemented ELO program can complement in-school learning and support academic growth by combining various ways for students to engage in learning. How do organizations, including schools, districts, and partners, build “expanded learning ecologies” for youth that support connected learning? The goal of this panel is to inform participants about building expanded learning ecologies to scale and across boundaries showcasing successes and challenges by presenting recent examples from Chicago, New York, and Providence, RI. To address the topic of scale, we will share examples of efforts that aim to reach many youth across many programs, beyond a single intervention or setting. To illustrate crossed boundaries, we will explain efforts to connect various nodes in a youths’ learning ecology (e.g., in-school, out-of-school, individual passion, etc.).
Chicago: The first Chicago Summer of Learning was a citywide mayoral initiative designed to expand learning opportunities for youth during the summer of 2013. More than 100 organizations took part in this effort to recognize learning in out-of-school spaces through digital badges. More than 200,000 youth participated in CSOL programs, and more than 100,000 badges were earned by youth of all ages. Chicago took a first, critical step in enacting core principles of connected learning and laying the foundation for a vibrant ecosystem of learning opportunities. As ELOs begin to signify experiences that link to content- and career-specific pathways, we expect to see even greater potential to transform youths’ lives.
New York: The NYC Department of Education’s Digital Ready program is designed to help participating NYC public high schools use technology and student-centered learning to improve their students’ readiness for college and careers. With Digital Ready’s explicit focus on student-centered learning, expanded learning opportunities play an important role in preparing students to explore, engage, and practice their interests. The Digital Ready and Hive Learning Network teams have worked to coordinate a collaborative effort between 10 innovative high schools and 13 groundbreaking Hive NYC organizations to provide students with a range of opportunities that blend in-school and out-of-school learning with experiences that are production-centered and creativity-focused.
Providence: Since its creation in 2004, the Providence After School Alliance has built two citywide expanded learning models in collaboration with the City of Providence, the Providence Public Schools and the local community: the AfterZone for middle school, and The Hub for high school. These models offer Providence youth a coordinated schedule of in-school, after-school summer learning programs for high school credit.

This document discusses challenges and recommendations for advancing civic education in schools. It addresses six main challenges: 1) Making civic learning a priority in school reform by linking education and democracy. 2) Integrating civic learning into the curriculum as testing requirements have reduced time for other subjects. 3) Implementing sound civic education standards. 4) Developing better assessment methods for civic learning. 5) Improving teacher training in civic education. 6) Increasing collaboration between schools and communities. The document provides specific actions that district, state, and federal leaders can take to address these challenges and strengthen civic mission of schools.

Social business enabling the enterprise university
Higher education institutions are facing challenges in engaging millennial students and preparing them for careers in a social business world. Universities can address this by integrating social concepts to more deeply engage students throughout the lifecycle from admission to employment. This involves transitioning students from being personally social on networks like Facebook to being professionally social on LinkedIn. Companies like 7Summits are helping universities build social communities and solutions to connect with prospective students, current students, alumni, and enable this personal to professional social transition. Examples include communities 7Summits created for MSOE to improve admissions and for Northwestern to reengage alumni.

Teach the Teachers, Reach the Students
Presented at LOEX 2017 with Trudi Jacobson
Librarians and faculty members from three institutions collaborated to adapt a metaliteracy Digital Citizen badge for use with graduate literacy education students. The multi-faceted goal is not only for these students to affirm their roles as digital citizens, but also to actively teach and model such citizenship to their prospective students. This grant-funded project, which adapts content from an existing metaliteracy badging system, incorporates mechanisms to encourage a community of users, and serves as a model for collaborations with faculty across various disciplines.
In this session, project collaborators will briefly introduce metaliteracy (metaliteracy.org), provide an overview of the badging system (metaliteracybadges.org), and discuss the components added for this project, and mechanisms that worked well for collaborating. We are not only concerned with collaboration within the grant team; we also built components that will encourage educators to create open access learning objects for an Educators Corner and an Educators Conference.
Drawing from expertise as co-creators and researchers in initiatives such as the new ACRL Information Literacy Framework and the Connecting Credentials (connectingcredentials.org) and Global Learning Qualifications Frameworks (funded by the Lumina Foundation), we have worked together to create a robust resource that will be available to every SUNY institution, and, ultimately, to interested institutions beyond SUNY. We encourage participants to actively engage in the presentation by contributing ideas for badging opportunities based on your own professional development and curricular goals to an open forum in the Educators Corner.
