ITLS Newsletter

A Note from Julie
The weather outside feels like spring and spring training is in the news, which also means that PARCC assessments are approaching. The latest Learning Services newsletter contains a reminder about the assessment resources that our department has gathered. We've tried to include resources that will be useful across grade levels and skill levels. If you know of something that might benefit others, please email us so that we can update the web page. Also, please share these resources with your peers.

Please join us at 7:30 a.m. at the ESC in the Cottonwood Meeting Room for our guest speakers. Becky Russell and Casey Veatch from the Colorado Department of Education will be starting our morning off with a very thought-provoking conversation about our roles as digital literacy professionals. We will then offer you some time to explore the possibilities in Blue Spruce as we unveil the Makerspace Lending Library or you can continue your discussion in Cottonwood on Information Literacy Skills and Tools from last month. We will wrap the morning up in Cottonwood with a few announcements. Please plan to stay from 7:30 - 10:45.
