Building Trust and Respect

• We need to
• Dispel fears of colleagues about students using
  2.0 technologies and show the positive impact on
  learning outweighs negative fears of misuse.
• Educate stakeholders and learning community about
  educational opportunities of new technologies and
  the ethics and social responsibility that come
  with digital intellectual property.
• Trust kids to use social networking appropriately
  and trust teachers and librarians to monitor
  student use of social networking sites.

The Technology

• We need to
• Build positive collaborations between librarians
  and the technology coordinators who can help us
  access digital spaces.
• Invite or create opportunities for the tech
  community to observe what students are doing in
  the library and make the effort to see and
  understand what they do.
• Create courageous conversations that change the
  attitude and conversation toward/with tech
  departments. We need each other - be the person
  who creates the opportunities in a positive way -
  look for ways to ask and work together.
• Learn from our students about what's relevant to
  who they are and what they do. Our students need
  to be teaching teachers and librarians about
  their technology and how they use it.

Teaching and Learning

• We need to
• Provide leadership for library and educational
  community to be better able to use L2.0 tools
  effectively in learning to connect to larger
  goals of the education community.
• Create environment that will engage stakeholders
  and foster community of learning. We need to
  teach and learn for ourselves and our colleagues.
