Idea - outline - suggestions....
First....

Draft Outline - very basic

Begin with the **shift**... Alec Couros does it well it this slide presentation on [|network literacy] starting on slide 14 (Maybe we could use slides 20 and 21?) -we need to bring in stats that specifically relate to our roles as tls - e.g. ebook stats, visual data, etc... -why is this shift important for teacher-librarians to understand? [|Joyce Valenza's updated Manifesto for 21st Century School Librarians] [|What dd you do in School Today?] Report and accompanying documents -what aspects of the shift impact our roles as instructional leader, teacher and manager [|2010 Horizon Report] - each of us could speak to the key trends from a personal level - what we have observed. [|2010 Horizon Report: The K12 Edition] -describe how this shift has affected each of us - personal examples (just one or two examples) [|SpeakLoudly Twitter Feed]
 * [|Will 50% of students buy an e-book this fall?]
 * [|Every 2 days we create as much information as we did up to 2003]
 * [|Digital Overload: Your Brain On Gadgets]
 * The average person today consumes almost three times as much information as what the typical person consumed in 1960, according to research at the University of California, San Diego.
 * [|Information on the Go]: Digital Technology Trends Impacting today's libraries and librarians - highlight trends in mobile internet access, e-reader and tablet computer use, and mobile apps.
 * [|Celebrating the ebook mess]
 * The way we think of learning environments is changing**.Traditionally, a learning environment has been a physical space, but the idea of what constitutes a learning environment is changing. The “spaces” where students learn are becoming more community-driven, interdisciplinary, and supported by technologies that engage virtual communication and collaboration. This changing concept of the learning environment has clear implications for schools. --- and school Libraries.

I wonder how we an incorporate these [|questions] from David Warlik into our presentation? > > In my one-to-one presentations - I do not speak about learning technology I speak about connections, conversations and collaboration.... could we use this idea?
 * 1) What does learning look like when networking enables us to facility multiple channels of conversation that transcend classroom walls, school campuses, and bell schedules?
 * 2) What does the learning look like when digital information has less to do with something to be taught,and more to do with providing learners with information raw materials that the can shape, mix and remix to construct their own learning?
 * 3) And what does learning look like — for that matter, what does it mean to be educated — when we have increasingly ubiquitous access to increasingly abundant amounts information? The technology is simply the window.


 * NOTE** - we need pictures of our own students using technology

Second..

What are the skills, habits of mind, literacies that we as teacher-librarians need to acquire to be relevant to our teacher's and student's educational needs? How can we renew, refresh, revitalize our roles to accommodate this shift?
