@larry_pird So sorry that happened!!

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@lprewandowski Awesome! You have inspired me!

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@JessGilcreast @BHSBulldogs @YouCanDoRubiks That is AWESOME!

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@NHSLMA @scharle4 @audrallurvey Thanks!!

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@NHSLMA A3: emails, morning announcements, talking to teachers and posting Google slides on the TVs around the school.

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@NHSLMA @scharle4 @audrallurvey We have created a place for puzzles too. Need to find inexpensive puzzles that are not missing pieces and are interesting pictures for young adults-- not "old" looking puzzles

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@audrallurvey @NHSLMA my library assistant is great at changing and creating very creative displays! This is an area I am weak at.

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@scharle4 @NHSLMA great idea to remember to do this on a regular basis!

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@NHSLMA A2: Implemented a Self-checkout station for books and chromebooks. This has freed up my time especially before and after classes so that I can be working with students instead of standing at my desk

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@NHSLMA A4: I have been participating in and created my first book chat. Read professional books and blogs. Missed the conference this year due to illness. Try to adapt to what others are doing at my school within our budget #nhslma

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

A6: NewseumED, @CommonSense & Google Reverse images are tools I have used with several HS science students.

I'm not surprised Ss are using Snapchat as a social connection, but was surprised that they found their news there too.

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

A3 : I was surprised that Snapchat is an influencing factor in determining credibility in news stories including journalists' credibility especially for 18-30 yo. #sau24bookchat #factvsfiction

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

A5: The self-assessment was fun! My daughter and I debated over them & I got more incorrect then I expected to.. Brown cows? Really? I look forward to doing more fake news quizes. #sau24bookchat

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

A4: The most challenging principle for me personally is giving students the chance to reflect on the impact of fake and misleading news on their daily lives, especially in regards to empathizing with others with their points of view in controversial issues

@SarahG35406249 yes, I agree. We could discuss good citizenship online and the book provides some examples, however, I think this could become a heated conversation in a high school setting, depending on what the topic or controversial news source is about.

[Kim Palmer @Mhsatclibrary]

@LibrarianDebi I agree that reflection time is the most challenging principle. Maybe before students leave the class they can write a quick note on a sticky that explains what they learned. Quick and easy.
