I chose Reinventing Project Based Learning: Your Field Guide to Real World Projects in the Digital Age by Suzie Boss. This is the book that is discussed in the podcast on my blog. As the middle school students are acquiring personal laptops this coming school year, this is an excellent guide for me as a librarian to assist the teachers in implementing projects. In Library Thing’s description of the book are the phrases: student driven experience, using technology tools for inquiry, and connection to the world. I believe the students are more engaged in this type of learning experience. This is an exciting book because it will aid in designing authentic projects using technology and serve as an example in the collaboration of teachers, students, and librarians.
