Sue Kowalski Highlighted for Bookmobile Efforts
Sue Kowalski, school librarian at Pine Grove Middle School in East Syracuse, NY, was featured in an article for her efforts to revamp an RV into a bookmobile. Sue purchased a 23-foot 1989 Lindy RV for $5,000 and outfitted it as a bookmobile. Pine Grove is undergoing renovations and the building is closed while work is under way; students are attending classes at six temporary locations. The RV--nicknamed Ms. Lindy--travels to the sites to augment the library program.
Rosemary Rich Named West Essex 2014-15 Education Services Professional of the Year
Rosemary Rich, library media specialist at West Essex High School in North Caldwell, NJ, was named the school’s 2014-15 Education Services Professional of the year. “She truly inspires students of all backgrounds and abilities,” said Principal Gary Suda. “She has demonstrated ongoing contributions to the improvement of student learning and the West Essex learning environment. She has also earned the respect and admiration of students, parents and faculty. Her students and colleagues describe her as enthusiastic, inspiring and dedicated.”
Marian Royal Vigil Wins a Year of Free AASL Membership
By sharing the wealth of AASL membership with a colleague, Marian Royal Vigil in turn won a free year of AASL membership for herself. Vigil’s name was drawn as the January winner of AASL's Share the Wealth Campaign. Vigil referred Rachel Altobelli to AASL. “I encouraged Rachel to renew her membership, which had lapsed,” said Vigil. “The resources available through AASL are so valuable to school librarians. I felt that, as district librarians, we needed to tap into those resources to enrich our own practices and strengthen our arsenal of information to share with the librarians we serve. Personally, I wish all school librarians would join AASL because I believe that would bolster our profession significantly and help us all become better at what we do.”
LaDawna Harrington Featured on NJ News Site
LaDawna Harrington, school library media specialist at Millburn High School in NJ, is featured as part of a series on NorthJersey.com. In the article LaDawna notes how school librarians help students think critically. She does this by having her students journal about their research processes online and interacting with students online. “Research is hard work," she said. "You can’t really push the ‘easy button’ and have your questions answered immediately."
Dhaivyd Hilgendorf Highlighted for Transition to Makerspace
An article in the Star Tribune highlights Dhaivyd Hilgendorf, school library media specialist at Park Center High in Brooklyn Park, MN, who helped transition his school library into a makerspace. “The idea is to move away from a sit-and-get traditional teaching environment and to focus on the creating process and the sharing process,” notes Hilgendorf. “We have integrated more technology into our space to facilitate that.”
Jeannine Madoff’s School Library Featured in News Item
An article in The Republic highlights library media specialist Jeanine Madoff’s efforts to revamp her school library into learning commons at The International School at Dundee in Riverside, CT. “I was feeling frustrated because the kids would start a research project with their classroom, I would be there at the beginning, then I wouldn't see them for a week,” Madoff said. “And then I'd come in, and they'd be halfway done. Here, I can take five, six days, however long we need to do it.”
AASL Members Receive Honors from NESLA

The awards will be presented during a luncheon at the May 9 NESLA board meeting.

________________________________
Are States Meeting College- and Career-Readiness Goals?
States could do more to ensure that students who earn diplomas are prepared for life after high school, according to a recent report. It found that in many states, college- and career-readiness goals are not aligned with standards, coursework and graduation requirements.
School Partnership Commits $35 Million to Philadelphia School District
The Philadelphia School Partnership has announced a $35 million commitment to the Philadelphia School District to offset costs associated with charter school expansion in the city and fund the transformation of district schools. Most of the funds will help cover the estimated costs over the next three years of adding up to fifteen thousand seats in quality charter schools in the city. The remaining $10 million will be invested in transforming district schools into high-quality schools.
Teachers’ Views on Education Reform Initiatives
Educators are split on whether the Common Core State Standards will improve the quality of education in their community, according to a recent study. Thirty percent said CCSS will improve their community's quality of education; 34% said it would decrease the quality; and 36% said their community's quality of education would stay the same. Data show strong support for blended learning, with two-thirds of teachers saying they support the model. In addition, 64% would prefer personally negotiating salary and benefits packages; only 12% believe collective bargaining leads to a better compensated workforce.
States Trying New Ways to Measure College Readiness
More states are expanding their measures for college readiness beyond seat-time requirements, according to a recent report. Some states have taken other measures such as competency-based assessments, grade-point average and class rank into consideration.
Global Skills Gap among U.S. Millennials
Millennials in the U.S. lag behind their peers in skills needed for a global workforce, such as practical, career-oriented literacy and numeracy skills and problem-solving, according to a recent analysis of data from 22 industrialized countries. The data showed that even the best performing and most educated millenials (those who are native born) and those with the greatest economic advantage do not perform favorably in comparison to their peers internationally. The U.S.’s top performing millennials scored lower than top-performing millennials in 15 of the 22 participating countries, indicating that the skills challenge is systemic. Low-scoring U.S. millennials ranked last and scored lower than their peers in 19 participating countries.
Improvements Needed to Make the Most of Gaming in Classrooms
There are pros and cons to using educational games in the classroom, according to a recent study on game playing in K-12 education. Researchers found that gaming can be more effective if there were improvements made in design or support around the games, or in both.
Principals Focus on Tech to Implement Common Core
Increasing bandwidth to help implement Common Core State Standards was a top priority for the principals participating in a recent survey. The majority of those responding said the Common Core is fueling technology purchases.
Diversity Gaining among Children’s Books
New data from the Cooperative Children’s Book Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison finds that children’s books with significant African or African American content nearly doubled in 2014. It also found a slight increase in publications featuring Asian/Pacific or Asian/Pacific American content, according to CCBC’s statistics.
Closing Education Gap Can Help Economy
A new study finds that the United States could ultimately enrich everybody by improving educational performance for the typical student. When it comes to math and science scores, the United States lags most of the other 33 advanced industrialized countries that make up the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, ranking 24th, far behind Korea, Poland and Slovenia. Moving up just a few notches to 19th—so that the average American score matched the O.E.C.D. average — would add 1.7 percent to the nation’s gross domestic product over the next 35 years, according to estimates by the Washington Center.
Report Shows More Women and Men Earning STEM Degrees
The number of women and men earning degrees in science, technology, engineering and math increased between 2004 and 2014, according to a recent report from the National Student Clearinghouse. "Both men and women are increasingly choosing STEM degrees, particularly in the hard sciences," said Doug Shapiro, executive research director of the clearinghouse's research center.

How Teachers Can Make the Most of Google+ and Twitter
Google+ and Twitter offer teachers an opportunity to build their professional learning networks, according to Thomas Murray, a director at the Alliance For Excellent Education, and Steven Anderson, a former director of instructional technology in North Carolina. In this article, they share eight ways that teachers can make the most of social networks, including how to use hashtags effectively.
Shaping Game Development for Middle Schoolers
Middle-school students said in a recent survey that they enjoyed learning about coding as part of a game-development course. In this commentary, Lisa Castaneda and Manrita Sidhu--both of foundry10, a not-for-profit that conducted the survey--highlight the findings and how they could be used by schools to shape game-development courses.
Teacher Debuts New “Teaching in Tandem” Model
Middle-school teacher Myryame Montrose Elder has developed a "teaching in tandem" collaboration model, which she says helps her meet the needs of French and English-as-a-second-language students. In this article, she explains how her approach is similar to "speed dating" and provides examples of how it benefits her students.
Should Schools Focus on College, Career Readiness?
College- and career-readiness lessons sometimes miss the mark, especially with students who see few rewards in adult life, English teacher Michael Godsey writes in this commentary. He explores student engagement and calls for a closer examination of the picture educators sometimes paint for students of life after high school.
Tips to Personalize Professional Learning
Creating personalized professional learning starts with understanding "the whole teacher or leader," suggests Ben Wilkoff, director of personalized professional learning in Denver Public Schools. In this commentary, he discusses how to create a professional learning profile by identifying strengths, needs, interests and constraints
