C206 | Libraries as Tech Hives: Using Libraries to Develop Emerging Technologies (Room NORTH 220D)

Albemarle County Public Schools is the world leader in leveraging libraries as technology hubs. ACPS has used libraries to manage, introduce, and support emerging and embedded technologies. Come see how our libraries have successfully managed a county wide 1:1 rollout, integrated virtual and augmented realities across contents and grade levels, created a K-8 coding program, implemented emerging assistive ESOL technologies, and supported it all with embedded professional development. School libraries are accessible to all students, and librarians are ideally suited to support their schools as they explore and integrate 21st century instructional design.
