Literature in digital environments: Changes and emerging trends in Australian...Judy O'Connell
Igniting a passion for reading and research is core business for school libraries, inevitably placing the library at the centre of the 21st century reading and learning experience. It is in this context that digital literature creates some challenging questions for teachers and librarians in schools, while the emergence of digital technology and/or device options also offers a great many opportunities. Collection development in school libraries encompasses an understanding of the need to contextualise these e-literature needs within the learning and teaching experiences in the school. The Australian Library and Information Association’s 2013 statement Future of collections 50:50 predicted that library print and ebook collections in libraries would establish a 50:50 equilibrium by 2020 and that this balance would be maintained for the foreseeable future. This statement from the Australian professional body raised the need to know more about e-collections in school libraries. For teacher librarians in Australian schools, the nature of online collections, and the integration of ebooks into the evolving reading culture is influenced by the range and diversity of texts, interfaces, devices, and experiences available to complement existing print and media collections or services. Management and budget constraints also influence e-collections. By undertaking a review of the literature, a discussion of the education context, and a critical analysis of the trends evidenced by national survey data, this paper presents an overview of the changes and emerging trends in digital literature and ebook collections in school library services in Australia today.
Game-based learning and academic integrityJudy O'Connell
Through a new subject added to anacademic program which commenced in 2014 at Charles Sturt University, further strategies have been explored to support subject engagement and assessment design. The contribution of global connectedness for embedding academic integrity through social scholarship was an essential feature of the curriculum and learning experience.
Rethinking Learning in the Age of Digital FluencyJudy O'Connell
Digital connectivity is a transformative phenomenon of the 21st century. While many have debated its impact on society, educators have been quick to mandate technology in school development - often without analysing the digital fluency of those involved, and the actual impact on learning. Is being digitally tethered creating a new learning nexus for those involved?
Digital Scholarship powered by reflection and reflective practice through the...Judy O'Connell
Current online information environments and the associated social and pedagogical transactions within them create an important information ecosystem that can and should influence and shape the professional engagement and digital scholarship within our learning communities in the higher education sector. Thanks to advances in technology, the powerful tools at our disposal to help students understand and learn in unique ways are enabling new ways of producing, searching and sharing information and knowledge. By leveraging technology, we have the opportunity to open new doors to scholarly inquiry for ourselves and our students. While practical recommendations for a wide variety of ways of working with current online technologies are easily marketed and readily adopted, there is insufficient connection to digital scholarship practices in the creation of meaning and knowledge through more traditional approaches to the ‘portfolio’. In this context, a review of the portfolio integration into degree programs under review in the School of Information Studies led to an update of the portfolio approach in the professional experience subject to an extended and embedded e-portfolio integrated throughout the subject and program experience. This was done to support a strong connection between digital scholarship, community engagement, personal reflection and professional reflexive practices. In 2013 the School of Information Studies established CSU Thinkspace, a branded Wordpress solution from Campus Press, to better serve the multiple needs and learning strategies identified for the Master of Education programs. The aim was to use a product that replicates the authentic industry standard tools used in schools today, and to model the actual ways in which these same teachers can also work in digital environments with their own students or in their own professional interactions. This paper will review how the ePortfolio now provides reflective knowledge construction, self-directed learning, and facilitate habits of lifelong learning within their professional capabilities.

Digital Learning Environments: A multidisciplinary focus on 21st century lear...Judy O'Connell
As a result of an extensive curriculum review a new multi-disciplinary degree programme in education and information studies was developed to uniquely facilitate educators’ capacity to be responsive to the demands
of a digitally connected world. Charles Sturt University’s Master of Education (Knowledge Networks and Digital Innovation) aims to develop agile leaders in new cultures of digital formal and informal learning. By examining key features and influences of global connectedness,
information organisation, communication and participatory cultures of learning, students are provided with the opportunity to reflect on their professional practice in a networked learning community, and to improve learning and teaching in digital environments.
School libraries are at the heart of a new digital learning nexus. Our world changed in April 1993 when the Mosaic 1.0 browser was released to the general public. The challenges we face are equally creative as they are complex. What is your focus for tomorrow?
Building a Vibrant Future for School Librarians through Online Conversations ...Judy O'Connell
Technology and social media platforms are driving an unprecedented reorganization of the learning environment in and beyond schools around the world. Technology provides us leadership challenges and at the same time offers opportunities for communication and learning through technology channels to support professional development. School librarians and teacher librarians are often working as the sole information practitioner in their school, and need to stay in touch with others beyond their own school to develop their personal professional capacity to lead within their school. The Australian Teacher Librarian Network aims to make a difference, and supports school library staff in Australia and around the world to build professional networks and personal learning connections, offering an open and free exchange of ideas, strategies and resources to build collegiality. This ongoing professional conversation through online and social media channels is an important way to connect, communicate and collaborate in building a vibrant future for school librarians.

Teacher librarians and school libraries play a vital role in their school communities by meeting the change, challenge and productive chaos of the Web front on!
Learning today requires developing agile approaches in a digital age. Digital technologies are transforming how knowledge is constructed and shared. Developing lifelong and life-wide learning as the central paradigm for the future requires cultivating inquisitive mindsets and digital knowledge networks. Leadership must embrace innovation, welcome change, and meet the challenges of our global connected future.
The digital revolution has given us a world of global connectedness, information organisation, communication and participatory cultures of learning, giving teachers the opportunity to hone their professional practice through their networked learning community. What do you do to make it so?
How will education libraries best serve their communities in 2015?
Why do we need to organise information more effectively? How do we incorporate the evolving semantic web environments? In a world of API and big data, libraries (and in particular school libraries) are faced with a significant ‘conceptual’ challenge. The new RDA cataloguing standard will substantively influence and then change information organization, focusing on users, access and interoperability. Search interfaces will be the key. We’re not dealing with records anymore. We are working with interrelated nodes of data. Are you prepared?

The Modern Digital Learning Landscape: 5 Tips To Engage Gen Z and Millennial ...Aggregage
If 2020 hasn’t radically changed your approach to your learning program, it’s time to get in the digital learning game or risk being left behind. But if you’re searching for current, new ways to engage people online and keep your business thriving, look to your youngest learners. In the next 5 years, Millennials will comprise 75% of the workforce, and Gen Z is right behind them. To future-proof your learning program, make sure your content is designed with these young professional learners in mind.
Web 2.0 allows students and educators to create and interact both synchronously and asynchronously, formally or informally, at school, at home, in distance education programs, in the workplace, on all manner of devices. This shift has required an open mind about future possibilities, while also documenting innovative or exemplar practices and their relationship to curriculum. Now Web 3.0 heralds a further development in online information behaviours and knowledge discovery techniques. Are we keeping up-to-date with the relevant network and social media changes that are affecting the online learning environment that we wish to embrace? Can you spot the wolf in sheep’s clothing?

This document provides an overview of connected learning and the role of connected educators. It discusses how the world has changed with new technologies and how schools need to change in response. Connected learning involves learning anytime/anywhere through personal learning networks and communities of practice. It emphasizes learning as participatory and collaborative rather than passive. Connected educators model lifelong learning and see themselves as learners first. They leverage collective intelligence through their connections.
From Information Literacy to Transliteracy: Preparing our Students for Open L...Dana Longley
The document discusses the need for students to develop transliteracy skills to effectively evaluate and interact with information across different media and platforms, and proposes metaliteracy as a framework to promote critical thinking and collaboration in a digital age through understanding various information formats and producing original content in multiple media. It also provides examples of how social bookmarking tools and online workshops can help develop these skills.
This document discusses trends in education and learning in the digital age. It addresses how contemporary technologies and digital resources can best meet the needs of learning communities and personal learning. Key points discussed include the need to shift from isolated to connected learning, from consuming to creating, and from learning as individuals to learning in networked communities. Connected learning communities that leverage collective intelligence through participation, collaboration, and social action are emphasized. Professional development is reframed as occurring through communities and networks rather than traditional workshops. The document advocates becoming connected, DIY learners who are change agents through communities of practice.
Social Media, Social Networking and School Libraries.Judy O'Connell
Social networking is a participatory medium that is changing the very nature of our professional connections, our community practices and the nature of learning interactions in these environments. It has become essential for teacher librarians to become professionally competent social media use to be able learn, teach, and communicate in 21st century environments
This document discusses the need for education to shift to meet the needs of 21st century learners. It notes that the world is changing rapidly due to technology and that schools need to change how they operate. Specifically, it argues that schools need to shift their focus from teaching to learning, move from teacher-directed to collaborative models, and view school improvement as a requirement rather than an option. The document highlights how the skills needed for the future cannot be clearly defined and discusses trends like the growth of mobile learning and an emphasis on lifelong learning.
This document discusses the importance of school libraries and teacher librarians leading learning in interactive digital environments. It argues that teacher librarians can be leaders in challenge-based, project-based, and game-based learning.

Presented at LOEX 2017 with Trudi Jacobson
Librarians and faculty members from three institutions collaborated to adapt a metaliteracy Digital Citizen badge for use with graduate literacy education students. The multi-faceted goal is not only for these students to affirm their roles as digital citizens, but also to actively teach and model such citizenship to their prospective students. This grant-funded project, which adapts content from an existing metaliteracy badging system, incorporates mechanisms to encourage a community of users, and serves as a model for collaborations with faculty across various disciplines.
In this session, project collaborators will briefly introduce metaliteracy (metaliteracy.org), provide an overview of the badging system (metaliteracybadges.org), and discuss the components added for this project, and mechanisms that worked well for collaborating. We are not only concerned with collaboration within the grant team; we also built components that will encourage educators to create open access learning objects for an Educators Corner and an Educators Conference.
Drawing from expertise as co-creators and researchers in initiatives such as the new ACRL Information Literacy Framework and the Connecting Credentials (connectingcredentials.org) and Global Learning Qualifications Frameworks (funded by the Lumina Foundation), we have worked together to create a robust resource that will be available to every SUNY institution, and, ultimately, to interested institutions beyond SUNY. We encourage participants to actively engage in the presentation by contributing ideas for badging opportunities based on your own professional development and curricular goals to an open forum in the Educators Corner.
This presentation discusses how MICDS high school has transformed its curriculum and use of technology. Three factors have impacted changes: external pressures for reform, evolution of technology skills, and teacher professional development. The curriculum is shifting to a more student-centered, collaborative model using various Web 2.0 tools. Assessment is also transforming to be more diagnostic, formative, and include performance-based and self-reflective elements. Advantages of social, collaborative learning include increased student engagement and support. The school aims to continue preparing students for the 21st century by reducing exams, allowing student choice, and focusing on skills over content.

Ähnlich wie Pedagogy and School Libraries: Developing agile approaches in a digital age (20)
A lot of talk about the future of the internet sounds almost hippie-spiritual or faux-philosophical. The Internet is not the same as the world-wide-web. But the Internet-of-Things and the Semantic Web - all parts of Web 3.0, are beginning to be very important to our learning environments. Here is a summary of key features, ranging from access, creativity, and information architecture.

Resistance is Futile: The dynamics of the Science CollectiveJudy O'Connell
Educators are increasingly using new media and digital technologies to teach and engage their 21st century students. Reading, writing, gaming, trans-media, immersive worlds, augmented reality, and Web 3.0 are all part of the new digital frontiers. Whether it’s science or science fiction, Alice in Wonderland or Angry Birds, the dynamics of this new information ecology can transform science classroom experiences. Assimilate these ideas, tools and techniques into your ‘collective’ ~ Resistance is futile.
Remix Culture as a Professional and Creative HabitJudy O'Connell
Let's talk for 10 minutes about creativity, creative commons, and working with images in online spaces. Whether it's blogging, creating presentations teachers need to be able to work quickly, with excitement, and be able to model design and management principles.
This document discusses how libraries can leverage social media to become more engaging and community-focused. It provides examples of how libraries are using various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and Google+ to connect with users, share content, and foster collaboration. The key message is that libraries need an online presence and must embrace social media to remain relevant in today's technology-driven world where users increasingly access and share information online.
Revolutionising Libraries with Social MediaJudy O'Connell
With the emergence of tools such as Twitter, Facebook, blogs, wikis, LinkedIn, virtual worlds and more, it has become important to offer a more customer-driven, socially rich and collaborative model of service and content delivery from our libraries.
Social media has few barriers. It's not about budget or acquiring the necessary tools.
What we need are experienced social media staff who can lead our libraries into participatory environments for the benefit of all.
Here you will find many key links and resources to support the workshop Revolutionising Libraries.
Learning without Frontiers: School libraries and meta-literacy in actionJudy O'Connell
Since their establishment school libraries have been instrumental in language and writing, showcasing and empowering the best in good reading and research immersion for their students. Now the best minds on our planet are suggesting that the Internet and the technology tools it has spawned will continue to be arguably the most influential invention of our time. With the maturation of the web we now use and interpret multiple kinds of literacy which are embedded in multimodal texts. Because of it we have found ourselves in the midst of highly dynamic and dramatically changing literacy learning landscapes – new frontiers populated by a plethora of mind matters as diverse as Alice in Wonderland, Angry Birds, Audioboo and Augmented Reality.
So you think you can curate resources, nurture literacy and teach in this new information ecology? Don your dark glasses and be prepared for the ride of your (professional) life in Learning without frontiers. This presentation will explore how teacher librarians can bind together teaching, emerging technologies, and the growing number of literacies to promote information-rich meta-literacy media environments suitable for 21st century school libraries.
The Next Big Thing is Web 3.0. Catch It If You Can Judy O'Connell
The best minds on our planet are suggesting that the Internet will continue to be arguably the most influential invention of our time. We are in the midst of a highly dynamic and dramatically changing landscape. Where Web 1.0 made us consumers of information, Web 2.0 allowed us to be participators and creators. Web 3.0 and the Semantic Web technologies are beginning to play a larger and more significant role in the search and filtering of the content fire hose that teachers and students encounter each day. How will the semantic web influence our learning and teaching encounters on the web? What is the connection between meaning and data? Will search or discovery be the main driving force in the 3.0 information revolution? How will information and knowledge creation in a semantic-powered online world develop? This session will draw on Semantic Web research and developments and show how connecting, collaborating and networking in a Web 3.0 world is changing the ground-rules once again.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

24. In talking about school libraries and the
essential paradigm shift that is taking place,
Stanley (2011) highlights three areas of
influence:
Information fluency — using search engines
effectively; evaluating online information;
collaborating in virtual environments, and
delivering material resources online.
Digital citizenship — understanding
responsible and ethical use of information, and
maintaining safe online practices.
Digital storytelling — reading, writing and
listening to books in many formats; creating,
collaborating and sharing in a range of
mediums.

The licensing is easy to understand and having students
select how they want to license their own work is a great
way to get students thinking about copyright, reuse and
attribution.
110. Creative commons
licenses work as “some
rights reserved rule
instead of “all rights
reserved” rule.
Diverse set of license
conditions with a range
of freedoms and
limitations.

114. Curriculum projects
The focus of the project was to facilitate deeper learning in our students by creating an
‘authentic learning’ experience to strengthen writing and literacy skills across the
curriculum. In English, students learned about the literary conventions of forensic fiction in
their crime novel, Framed, and how to use them to solve a crime. In Science, students
learned about how use a variety of scientific methods including analysing dental records,
fragments and fibres, fingerprinting, shoe-printing and DNA samples in order to solve a
crime.

115. Curriculum projects
Each boy received a forensic workbook –
containing a range of materials for
examination such as crime reports,
witness statements and a coroners
report. In addition the ‘crime scene’ was
taped off, with key evidence on display
e.g. fingerprints, the location of the body,
and places where DNA was found.
Photographic evidence included the
injury reports (fake bruising and blood on
the victim), video footage of the scene of
the crime (staged by students and
teachers) and also hard hitting
interviews.
