Florida State University

Florida State University along with its partners ,the New York University Research Center for Leadership in Action and local school districts, will follow 30 recipients from two previously-funded IMLS school library media scholarship programs through their first year working in the schools so that they might gain a better understanding of the school library media specialist’s role in integrating technology into the classroom. This project seeks to determine how Library and Information Science education can better prepare school library media specialists to be leaders in technology integration in their schools. It will also explore how “Cooperative Inquiry Methodology,” a leadership development program based upon professional collaboration, can be used to better measure the educational outcomes of school library media programs.
