The Story
Gateway to the World Library Newsletter
Did you make any professional development resolutions? If not, then consider making this a goal for the Spring of 2018. Do you have a ready made lesson you'd like to incorporate technology and creativity into? If yes, get the brainstorming started by reading John Spencer's Ten Creative Risks to Take with Students This Year. You might also be interested in reading a few selected educational blogs, similar to Spencer's or new books in the library's professional development collection. Hyperlinks to a few tech blogs and recommended books are listed below. Plus, the librarians are available to help you research, plan, revise or even co-teach the lesson.
