[cross-posted to Media in the Middle]

Tonight I started my journey as a “MediA 21″ media specialist by starting my “Engaged Learning” class.  Many of our teachers are working on creating Teach 21 classrooms and now media specialists have a similar opportunity.  Our system believes in providing the tools and (just as important) the training in order to engage our students in learning 21st century skills.  This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to benefit from the integration of technology in the classroom.

Next week I have the actual orientation to the program when I hope to learn what tools of a 21st century media center we will receive at our school.  For now, I know that I will be writing reflections on my learning each week as I progress through the MediA 21 process, so I will post those reflections here as well as on my MediA 21 portfolio page.
