How might technology assist in equipping low-income parents with tools and information to help their children meet developmental milestones and read on grade level by the end of third grade?
In 2012, the Joan Ganz Cooney Center and the New America Foundation are partnering to produce a scan of new technologies that are available to educators, parents and young children that may have some bearing on early literacy achievement. One motivating force behind the project is the importance of the context in which technologies are used and the extent to which digital media may or may not prompt parents to engage in language-rich conversations with their children.
The project is proceeding on two tracks. We are scanning and analyzing products (apps, ebooks, games and websites) that companies are marketing as literacy-focused. And we are seeking out examples of models, interventions and programs that employ technology in reaching educators, parents and/or children, particularly those in disadvantaged circumstances. This slideshow presents some early findings from our scans of the marketplace and interviews with leaders in early literacy programs around the country. The second stage of our project, to come this fall, is a published analysis with expanded materials available online for wider national dissemination.

Educational Priorities for the 21st CenturySam Gliksman
The current rate of technology advance, coupled with the rapid growth of the Internet, is revolutionizing society and the ways in which we communicate, connect and learn. In order to remain relevant, schools need to revise their educational objectives and prepare students with skills for a life of continual change and re-learning.

Leveraging Technology in Your Learning Center: Enhancing Services, Creating N...Lisa D'Adamo-Weinstein
Emerging technologies such as social networking, multi-media sharing, collaborative workspaces, and mobile technologies are significantly changing the nature of learning and learner expectations for interaction, access, and engagement.
Learning center professionals need to leverage these emerging technologies in ways that can enhance they ways in which we deliver services, create resources, market our centers, manage and train staff, and evaluate our centers.
The focus of the topics I will cover during the institute will be on how to best understand emerging technologies and how to choose the technology tools that will help you meet your goals in managing your learning center.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

YOU.
Yes, you.
You control the Information Age.
Welcome to your world.
Digital and visual literacies are the next wave of
communication specialization. Children learn these skills
as part of their lives, like language, which they learn
without realizing they are learning it.
7. Why do we have to talk about
doing things differently??
Books like A Whole New

thing.…Instead, like so many other
teenagers, Nadia, 15, is addicted to
the Internet. She regularly spends
at least six hours a day in front of
the computer
….Nadia checks her e-mail and peruses
myyearbook.com, a social networking
site, reading messages or posting
updates on her mood. She searches
for music videos on YouTube
.…But she spends most of her time on
quizilla.com or fanfiction.net, reading
and commenting on stories written by
other users and based on books,
television shows or movies.

38. Google Philosophy
Focus on the user and all else will
follow.
It's best to do one thing really,
really well.
Fast is better than slow.
Democracy on the web works.
You don't need to be at your desk
to need an answer.
You can make money without doing
evil.
There's always more information
out there.
The need for information crosses
all borders.
You can be serious without a suit.
Great just isn't good enough.
39. Google Philosophy Applied in
the Library Media Center:
Focus on the student and all else
will follow.
Democracy in the library works.
You don't need to be in the library
to need an answer.
There's always more information
out there.
The need for information crosses
all borders.

41. Google Search Tips to Share
With Your Students/Staff…
You can type define: and a word and it will show
you dictionary definition.
You can also type math calculations into the google
search box; it is also a calculator.
You can type in a barcode number and then look it
up!
In google language translator you can type in the
whole website address and it will translate the
whole page.
For some big sites, you even get a search box
within (like the NY Times).
42. Google Search…
Did You Know That-
Phonebook:name place - get someone’s phone number.
Google maps for directions shows you traffic too and you can
drag the route to another road; instantly recalculates
directions. Shows construction and accidents. Click on
cameras next to directions to see street view. You can pan
around too.
In preferences you can turn on/off porn filtering.
quot;I'm feeling luckyquot; means just take me to the top search
result - it will go right to the website.
Maximum number of words in a search is 10. Plurals matter.
For some organizations, they give you a table of contents in
the results. This is relatively new.
Asterisk is the wildcard - great for song lyrics that you can't
understand (excuse me while I kiss the *)

49. Ideas for Using Google Docs
in Your Library
Staff meeting agendas and follow up notes
Teacher/Librarian planning
Share a book wish list with teachers and students
Students can write a collaborative story. One student writes the beginning
and then another add the second paragraph. The third adds to it and so on
and on.
Group planning for research projects become simple and transparent. Each
member can contribute their information and you can view the revision
history anytime.
Google Docs is great for collaborative brainstorming - every idea is included.
Instead of saving Word files onto a jump drive or emailing back and forth,
the student can work on a document on Google docs and access it from
school and home. They will always have access to it and you won't hear quot;I
forgot it at homequot; or quot;I have a different program at homequot;.
Have your students create a library newsletter. Invite various students to
work on the document at the same time.
Collaborative note taking.
52. Google Spreadsheets & Forms
Create surveys for patron/student
opinions, votes
Collaborate with other librarians in
your district for different types of
data collection
55. Google Presentation
Google Presentation is not quite robust a presentation program as
PowerPoint or Keynote but students can create their entire presentation
online and work on it with group members or access it from home/school.
Instead of my students sitting passively watching a student's PowerPoint
presentation, a presenter publishes their presentation online.
100% engagement in the presentation and they handle the responsibility of
being in the chat room well (it only takes one student to get kicked out and
the rest shape up fast!).
YOU can embed YOUR presentations in online project websites
so that students can access them from anywhere.
57. Google Sites
This web site creation tool is one of the simplest
available and one of the most flexible. You can
create a complex hierarchy of content, upload
files, and even make blog-like announcements.
Additionally it brings together all of the other
great Google tools - letting you easily embed
Google Docs, Calendar, Picasa albums, and much
more!
68. Digital Storytelling: Ask
Yourself….
Is it focused on student learning?
Are there observable results?
Does it meet the standards?
Can it show results?
Does it increase research skills?
Does it improve communication skills?
Are students accountable?
Does it improve student
collaboration?
Does it help students communicate
globally?
Does it help students deal with
massive amounts of information?
Does it teach our students to be
self-directed and understand how to
organize more of their own learning?
--Dr. Howard DiBiasi
77. The Power of Blogging…
Interactive: can respond to peers
Writing for an audience
With hyperlinks and images adds a
dimension impossible with pen and
paper writing.
