Our school library media program at MCT, as well as MCPS media curriculum and Maryland State Outcomes are based on Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning, published by the American Library Association (ALA) and prepared by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) and the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT). It is based on 9 Information Literacy Standards for Student Learning, and focuses on three themes that underlie this vision of library media programs: collaboration, leadership and technology. Please watch the attached Powerpoint to begin our joint effort to ensure that students are effective users of ideas and information.

There are vast collections of lessonplans and other helpful resources online. I have collected just a few of them for your use. Please share your feedback with me.

Here are some webquests, pathfinders and other resources I have created for specific curriculum units. I will add more as I complete them - and please let me know what other subjects might be helpful to your students.
