The new Common Core State Standards have arrived. Meanwhile in every district there are rising expectations for academic achievement and an increased focus on accountability. Joining media instruction together with curricular areas subject to assessment can help ensure every area of your K-12 instructional program is aligned to the Common Core. This presentation will demonstrate how the Jackson school district is designing its new “e-Library” to improve performance on standardized tests.
Participants will also learn about the value of the e-Library in strengthening the home-school and community-school connection, about the district’s Nook and iPad pilot programs and how the new Destiny library management system has created a more interactive and efficient culture in the media center.
