Re: Which Media Specialist program should I choose?

I would like to respectfully, but completely disagree with
Julie's comments. Anyone who is anyone in the School Library
Media world (i.e. Joyce Valenza) will tell you that the MLIS is
the minimum requirement to become a teacher librarian. The MLIS
is essential.
From Joyce Valenza's book, PowerTools Recharged:
"The qualified teacher-librarian is both an instructional and
knowledge manager. He or she holds professional credentials in
education, as well as in library science." p.2-3A
Look to the ALA for guidance on which school to attend.
The Teacher Technology Center chatboards are for educators who teach computer classes or educators who have an interest in technology and related areas.
