CREATING A GLOBAL MEDIA CENTER

Back in April 18-19 I had the pleasure of taking part in World View's Creating a Global Media Center in Chapel Hill with four of our Media Specialists:  Dannelle McPherson, Brandy Ward, Jewell Cribb and Wendy Tyree.  It was a wonderful conference filled with well known N.C. educators, information and ideas for taking our media centers into the 21st century globally, group discussions, networking with participants and lots of technology.  I wish that all our Media Specialists had been able to attend this awesome experience.  But for those of you who did not, the five of us who did attend have put together what we fill is the highlights of the conference in this blog post.  Please use this post often in order to apply the techniques and best practices that were shared with us and in doing so, we will assure our students and staff that we are creating 21st century global media centers in our schools.

In closing, we were given an Action Plan that we are to complete and return to World View.  I suggest that we do this together and adopt it as a county-wide plan rather than creating seventeen different plans.
