Current theory and research, the practical experiences of over 40 library media specialists, and step-by-step instructions will assist both the new and experienced school library media specialist to function as a full curriculum partner in the 21st century.Chapters on leadership, change, and vision present the current models of leadership and explain the importance of being proactive, initiating change, and creating a vision for the school library media center as the center of learning that others in the school community will support. Suggestions for building a relationship with the principal and teachers, implementing flexible scheduling, and creating advisory groups and library advocates are presented here, along with techniques for successful staff development. Collaborative planning, implementation, and assessment of instructional plans (including special focus on technology, interdisciplinary curriculum, cooperative learning, and learning styles), complete with examples from all types of schools and grade levels, will inspire school media specialists to fully participate in creating information literate students in the 21st century. 410 0$aGreenwood professional guides in school librarianship. 606 $aSchool libraries$zUnited States 606 $aCurriculum planning$zUnited States 606 $aInstructional materials centers$zUnited States 606 $aTeacher-librarians$zUnited States 615 0$aSchool libraries 615 0$aCurriculum planning 615 0$aInstructional materials centers 615 0$aTeacher-librarians 676 $a027.8 700 $aKearney$b Carol A.$f1939-$01796955 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972230803321 996 $aCurriculum partner$94338967 997 $aUNINA
