February 4 (1-2 pm PST)
Despite their controversial roll out, the Common Core
standards continue to have an impact on our schools. During this time of
transition, school librarians are integral to supporting teachers, students and
administrators as they struggle with the changes brought on by the
implementation of the Common Core. Presenters, Margaux DelGuidice and Rose
Luna, Library Journal 2013 Movers and Shakers, will briefly cover the new
standards with a main focus on the opportunities they provide for school
librarians to advocate for their library programs. The presenters will also
acknowledge the controversy that surrounds the Common Core standards, examining
all sides of the educational debate.
