TCAPSLoop Episode 6.1 Banned Books Week

Well, hello there!

It's time for another season of the TCAPSLoop Edtech podcast, where once again we attempt to demystify educational technology and inspire our fellow educators, parents and any other sentient beings to embrace these amazing educational tools and ideas. 

 

TCAPSLoop Moment of Zen:

Once you learn to read, you will be forever free.  - Frederick Douglass

 

On Today's Agenda:

Stephie is joined by High School Head Librarians: Genevieve Minor, and Larissa Vanderzee to discuss what's new at their libraries including peer and writer mentoring. They also touch on the process of putting together a collection and other resources libraries can provide for students. Finally we acknowledge "Banned Books Week," September 18-24. Originally launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in schools, bookstores and libraries. This week we invite you to, "join librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types — in shared support of the freedom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular."
