Collaborate (Paperback)

If your goal is to create a collaborative culture that enhances learning and enriches the entire school community, you’ll want this book! Part of the Shared Foundations series, this book examines effective implementation of the Shared Foundation Collaborate from the National School Library Standards. Readers will discover strategies for establishing deeper connections to school curriculum and mission, activating collaborative opportunities, facilitating learning networks, modeling respect while working in diverse groups, and moving beyond support and resources to instructional partners. Examining the Domains of Think, Create, Share, and Grow reveals the development of the collaborative mindset in learners at different grade levels and how making both physical space and time space contribute to shaping a culture of collaboration across the learning community. Brimming with authentic examples of Collaborate in action, this book offers strategies for strengthening collaborative relationships with administrators and other educators by leading mission-based professional development; engaging lesson ideas and projects that scaffold learning and promote voice and choice while building the mindset of Collaborate in learners; trajectories for developing Collaborate skills in grades K-12 and mapping or documenting learners’ growth; and complete renovations and smaller incremental changes to school libraries that demonstrate opportunities to rethink learning and create space for collaboration in all settings. By understanding what the Shared Foundation of Collaborate can look like in K-12 environments, school librarians can better position themselves as essential to cultivating collaborative learning communities. Examination copies are available for instructors who are interested in adopting this title for course use.
