JCPS school library media coordinators will tie technology and pedagogy to the outcomes of the ISTE standards/ NC Digital Learning Standards for Students and NC Digital Learning Competencies. During this time, media coordinators will explore student-centered learning experiences that are rich with technology and aligned to the 4C’s (critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration). They will unpack key elements related to deeper learning and technology integration. Time will be allocated for goal-setting and design of learning opportunities for their students, development of associated resources, and formative feedback. Media coordinators will be provided with job-embedded coaching in October, November, and January on the delivery of instruction.
