Program: Curriculum Instruction and Prof Dev

Dates: 7/26/2022 to 8/10/2022

The Adaptive Schools Foundation Seminar presents a productive, practical set of ideas and tools for developing collaborative groups in becoming effective and better equipped to resolve complex issues around student learning. The work of the Adaptive Schools Seminars is to develop the resources and capacities of the organization and of individuals to cohesively respond to the changing needs of students and society. The training not only explores what makes teams effective, but how to develop skills as facilitators and informed group members in informal and formal settings, in small and large groups. It takes participants beyond the idea of professional learning communities to the actual implementation. It describes specific ways to weave the collaborative fabric of a faculty, develop group member skills, and acquire the principles and understandings to engage in a continuous cycle of team and individual improvement. Adaptive Schools is the "how" of professional learning communities: how to behave in groups, how to lead them, and how to facilitate them for improved leading, teaching and learning.

82. Teaching for Truth in the Library and the Classroom - How to Integrate Media Analysis through Collaboration

Program: School Library Services

Audience: 6-12 Librarians in the Monroe One and Monroe 2 BOCES regions

Dates: 10/7/2022

Given our already overloaded curriculum and the global Infodemic of disinformation, how do we realistically teach all of our students habits of critical thinking about all media messages?

This interactive full-day workshop will give librarians the inspiration, theory, models, resources - and some time - for planning how to integrate critical thinking about all mediated information into your work with students and teachers.

Chris Sperry, award-winning teacher, co-founder of Project Look Sharp, and co-author of Teaching Students to Decode the World, will engage participants in a practical model for media decoding that can be integrated at all grade levels and subjects. This question-based approach uses rich media documents - from blogs to books and paintings to Pinterest - to motivate all students to learn core IFC and subject area standards.

In the afternoon participants will review free classroom-ready lessons and PD materials, individually, in teams, or small groups to create plans for implementing this work.

Please note: This session is only open to librarians in the Monroe One and Monroe 2 BOCES regions.

If you are a K-5 librarian, you can register for Faith Rogow's full day workshop here: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13458&I=4135774
