in the blink of an eye? Designed your own color-changing disco dance floor? In
Learn to Program with Minecraft®, you’ll do all this and more with the power of
Python, a free language used by millions of professional and first-time
programmers! Begin with some short, simple Python lessons and then use your new

floods Whether you’re a Minecraft megafan or a newbie, you’ll see Minecraft in a
whole new light while learning the basics of programming. Sure, you could spend

THE COLLECTION PROGRAM IN SCHOOLS: CONCEPTS AND PRACTICES, 6TH EDITION

2016-02-25 Marcia A. Mardis



Our digitally rich world changes quickly and contains more information resources
than ever before; as a result, school librarians are tasked with the enormous
challenge of curating a diverse, high-quality, and up-to-date collection for
teachers, students, and administrators to use. This new edition of The
Collection Program in Schools gives school librarians the tools to develop and
maintain a collection in a constantly changing environment, often with reduced
budgets; and to ensure that students can use virtual libraries and have access
to all modern media and learning resources. The book logically progresses in its
coverage of national and state policy concerns to community needs to the process
of collection building and maintenance. Topics covered include key education
trends affecting collections, such as digital textbooks and other non-print
resources, instructional improvement systems, STEM priorities, and open
education resources; the use of school libraries as makerspaces; media type
considerations for a range of users; Common Core State Standards and Next
Generation Science Standards; and the principles of curation: acquisition,
description, organization, promotion, evaluation, and maintenance. This guide is
ideal for use in many graduate-level school librarian preparation courses,
including classes on school library collection development and school library
management.

K-12 CLASSROOMS

2019-12-27 Ikuta, Shigeru



As technology continues to play a pivotal role in society, education is a field
that has become heavily influenced by these advancements. New learning methods
are rapidly emerging and being implemented into classrooms across the world
using software that is low cost and easy to handle. These tools are crucial in
creating skillful learning techniques in classrooms, yet there is a lack of
information and research on the subject. The Handbook of Research on Software
for Gifted and Talented School Activities in K-12 Classrooms is an essential
reference source that discusses newly developed but easy-to-handle and less
costly software and tools and their implementation in real 21st-century
classrooms worldwide. The book also helps and supports teachers to conduct
gifted and talented school activities in K-12 classrooms. Featuring research on
topics such as educational philosophy and skillful learning techniques, this
book is ideally designed for software developers, educators, researchers,
psychologists, instructional designers, curriculum developers, principals,
academicians, and students seeking coverage on the emerging role that newly
developed software plays in early education.
