Digital Tools Session Ii
This document summarizes the agenda and objectives for Session II of a digital leadership training. The session focuses on:
1) Navigating an online course management system and sorting/filtering Excel spreadsheet data and charts.
2) Using the internet efficiently to find, evaluate, and store information and to legally and ethically share it.
3) Developing a personal web presence by creating a start page on Protopage.
ALA 2009 Creating a Culture of Learning
The document discusses creating a culture of learning in libraries. It argues that learning, rather than training, should be emphasized because learning is self-directed, focused on the individual, and can happen anywhere and anytime. The key elements of a learning culture include management involvement, tying learning to strategic goals, and providing access to learning resources for all staff. Tips for creating such a culture involve things like dedicating staff to guide learning, collaborating with other libraries, and allowing time and incentives for staff learning. An emphasis on informal and ongoing learning is important for adapting to changing needs.
Web 2 tools in learning
The document provides links to different Web 2.0 tools that could be used for learning activities, including Facebook, Twitter, and blogs. It instructs the reader to choose one tool that appeals to them, think of how to apply it to their subject area, explore using the tool, develop a prototype, and share their ideas. Examples of using Facebook, Twitter, and blogs in education are also listed.
Cultivating a Culture of Learning in Libraries
The document discusses cultivating a culture of learning in libraries. It defines the difference between training, which is instructor-led, and learning, which is self-directed. The benefits of creating a learning culture include increased staff morale, retention, customer service and innovation. Key elements of a learning organization include trust, empowerment, sharing knowledge and allowing mistakes. Tips are provided for libraries both large and small to promote informal and lifelong learning among staff.
Some tools to bring new life to your classroom
With any job it’s easy to eventually find oneself in a rut, doing things the same way over and over. I know back when I was teaching, sometimes the pressures of grading, paperwork, and the real world meant that I didn’t try to teach a lesson differently or try something new with my students. Maybe I blamed it on the fact that I had four preps, but no matter what the reason, it was very rewarding to take time to try a new innovative lesson and see it work very well in the classroom.
As we start a new school year, there is no better time for teachers to investigate something new. And whether it is something truly transformative to teaching, or maybe just a tool to make teaching a little more efficient, any improvement is a step in the right direction. Here are some simple to use tools to get you started in the right direction.
11 advantages of using a blog for teaching
The document outlines 11 advantages of using blogs for teaching. It discusses how blogs make education more student-focused, allow learning anytime and anywhere, encourage continuous work and learning, help develop critical thinking, communication, creativity, collaboration skills, make learning less formal, open up learning, encourage experimenting with different media, and integrate learning with work and life. Specific benefits mentioned include reflection, feedback, sharing work, engaging audiences, and developing 21st century skills. Examples of blog uses by students, teachers, and parents are also provided.
Social media guidelines
The document provides guidance on using social media to communicate with students and parents. It recommends sharing news, accomplishments, resources and topics being learned, but avoiding personal information, negative comments, account credentials or copyrighted materials. It also suggests updating frequently, responding to comments, blocking profanity, treating pages professionally, and deleting inappropriate comments. Social media can efficiently share information with students and parents across devices and platforms.
Developing The 24
Classroom web pages are becoming a popular way for teachers to provide online resources and support for students. They allow digital natives access to curriculum materials 24/7 in ways that support reading, writing and learning. Web pages also help students see the internet as personally relevant to their schoolwork and allow teachers to stay connected to students and families.

With our students already regularly surfing on their mobile devices, the time is right for exploring how to turn the tide of social media into tools for student engagement and success. Interested in learning more? Then paddle your board to this session for ideas from this presenter's sabbatical research for successfully navigating the social storm and staying on top of the wave! Goals/outcomes: Attendees will learn about the various forms of social media, current research surrounding effective use of social media in higher education, and explore practical and meaningful approaches for incorporating social media - in all its forms - into their courses to help increase student engagement and success.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
