Developing Reflective Explorers and Innovators. Activity Guide
2020 ALA Emerging Leaders--Team A
American Association of School Librarians
To guide school librarians in their work of inspiring future generations of explorers, AASL tasked a 2020 ALA Emerging Leaders team with developing a guide of activities, resources, and professional development based on the Explore Shared Foundation in the "National School Library Standards." As learners prepare for college, career, and life, it is imperative school librarians continue to develop learners' skills as explorers. Cultivating learners' curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking allows learners to persist through and demonstrate problem solving. Designed to illustrate challenges school librarians commonly face when helping learners develop the necessary skills to become effective explorers, this guide offers a comprehensive range of scenarios and activities organized by the AASL Standards four Domains--Think, Create, Share, and Grow--and shaped for learners, school librarians, and school libraries.
