Joint Elementary and Secondary IML Facilitators meeting

Wednesday May 23, 2007 was an exciting day.  All of our documentation and tools had bee prepared but not put together yet.  With the help our our LRS team and CISC clerical staff, we put together 300 resource binders.
 
The binders are just a symbol of the work that has gone into preparing for this meeting.  For most of this year, we have been meeting, determining and fine tuning what Information and Media Literacy can be in Surrey.
 
During the meeting we saw some awesome examples of what our students are already doing across the grades and across the curriculum.  I was impressed to see some of the products that our Elementary Students and our Secondary Students were able to produce.  The products weren’t the key; I saw the wealth of learning that went into them.
 
I dream is that every student have opportunities to learn in the ways that the teachers showcasing their students learning have provided.  I believe working with the IML capacities across the grades and curriculum can make this a reality.
 
Thank you to everyone that participated in the meeting.
