Teacher Librarians promote literacy in all its forms. One type of literacy is digital media literacy. In the Lougheed LLC we want to encourage students to learn the skill of podcasting. https://t.co/0dpNGHePI2 #ONSchoolLibrary #ShareYourLLC

@jsteeves71 @susinnielsen This is my setup. A 4-Channel sound mixer, a few $60 mics, some headphones, and a laptop to hook it up to. Software is Audacity for recording and editing, which is free.

@JayWigmore Old fashioned plan, walnut crunch and chocolate eclair, let’s go!

@anonymousfish33 Harry Potter is well loved by my school community and, even though some titles were weeded because they were damaged, circulation data says that this series is relevant and interesting to my school community so it stays.

I’m a Peel Teacher-Librarian and I weeded thousands of books from my school collection last year. My shelves are far from empty. What I did was remove books that were damaged, growing mold, out of date or contained harmful stereotypical depictions on their covers.

@MatthewOldridge That’s the biggest problem with our public discourse these days. Too many seem to want the conflict that contentious headlines encourage, and corporations have figured out how to profit from it. The people who are rational and reasonable rarely get their say.

[Tim Boudreau @timboo_drow]

Please do more than reading juicy headlines before making up your mind about this very nuanced practice of weeding Library collections.

[Tim Boudreau @timboo_drow]

Removing these books made the space I needed to reorganize the collection into genres, and to have room to place book bins on the shelves which serves my students in making it easier for them to find the books they love.

It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 11 years, since 27 May 2012 (via @twi_age).

More #WarOfTheRing painting progress. Now I’ve completed one of each type of Free People’s units. Now that’s 22 painted, 182 to go. https://t.co/syykbku7yV

[Tim Boudreau @timboo_drow]

Some more progress on that #WarOfTheRing project. I painted one copy of each type of the “red” minis so that they can be more easily recognized on the board. 7 minis down only 197 to go. https://t.co/R6cj4pGrPl

@JBradshaw01 Apparently this is how things used to go. Contract years were not the huge media circus events that they’ve become over the past ten years. However given how adversarial this govt is I’m nervous too.

I should be planning for next week, but instead got in a game (or two) of Eclipse with friends. https://t.co/HGL4qS4FXi

I should be planning for next week, but we are playing Root and hot chocolate instead. https://t.co/R5beRi6gMk

@JimChuong Oh no! How will you ever make ends meet?

@RudyCuzzetto @Sflecce @ONeducation I don't think your stats are correct. The population of Ontario has increased about 2M over the past 20 years, the number of schools has also increased. Unless class size has drastically decreased over the last 20 years, there could not possibly be the same number of students.
