Please share this timely, ONLINE continuing education opportunity from Dominican GSLIS with any of your school library media students and/or alumnae/i: COMMON CORE STANDARDS WEBINAR Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm CST “Librarians need to be the gurus of CCS. They need to know the CCS inside out. These standards are interdisciplinary, and it is school librarians who can help teachers make connections among courses. It seems to me that the role of school librarians, more than ever, is one of leader, designer, and educator.” – Joyce Karon Join Joyce Karon in this informative webinar focusing on best practices of school librarians implementing CCS with faculty and students across all disciplines. Participants will be asked to share their experiences in implementing the Common Core, including intended grade level, and subject area.
