Professional Learning Book Study: Building Blocks for Tiny Techies
This group has been created for INFOhio users and book study groups who are reading the book, Building Blocks for Tiny Techies by Jamila "Mia" Leonard. This group is to be used in combination with the INFOhio class, Building Blocks for Tiny Techies by Jamila "Mia" Leonard to help teachers reflect on their own practices and learn from others.
In this book, the author shares her expertise with best practices for tech implementation, adaptation, and exploration in the elementary classroom, where today's students are digital natives, adept at using touchscreens and apps from an early age. She offers strategic, seamless, and intentional ways to fold tech into existing curricula. This guide helps teachers reach for apps and learning tools that power up the great learning that's already happening in the classroom.

Yes our district is 1:1. Yes, overwhelmed initially .... and sometimes still! As our library is "the first line of support" for student Chromebook issues, being organized and communicating with the staff helps. We revise our policies as needed and to save time when necessary. Having quarterly meetings available at our datasite with other library staff is a great resource to see how other districts handle similar situations.
