destiny barcode labels

by arachgold

Oct 8, 2009

We are having a problem printing barcode labels on Staples labels that are compatible with Avery 5160. Only the first 4 or so rows of the barcodes fit perfectly on the labels vertically. The rest are off so the numbers of the barcode are cut off. We adjusted the vertical alignment, but that doesn't seem to help. How is this possible? Aren't the bar...See More

class presentation using technology

by garbee

Oct 10, 2009

I had 6th grade students write short alliteration stories. I want to take each one page story with clipart and put them all together into one presentation. I'll have the students record/narrate their pages. They will then share the finished project to lower grade studetns. What application should I use to put it all together?

How about lesson plans?

by Heather Morrell

Oct 15, 2009

Hi Everyone!

I am a senior library science student at Clarion University! I was really excited to find this wonderful resource, but a little disappointed to see that there isn't a section under lesson plans for librarians. I am sure that many (if not all) of you have lots of wonderful lesson plans you are just dying to share!? I wasn't loo...See More

Cybrary Man On the Library page on my site I have links to library lessons as well as some of the orientation lesson ideas that I used.

I would also suggest looking at the Cooperative Learning lessons that I used very successfully in the library in different subject areas.

Could anyone recommend a booklist of high low books for high school students. Not necessarily new books, in other words books that might be currently on the library shelf.

Cybrary Man Good question!

I feel the most pressing issues in schools with regards to technology integration are:

The costs associated with the hardware and software. The need for extensive training of teachers. The fear factor of parents, teachers, administrators and school boards in using Social Media tools.

In Michigan it depends on the district..... in the district where I taught, the library was run by a parapro who was paid hourly. In other districts, they have media specialists with MLS degrees, who are on the teachers' salary schedule.
