Librarians Network Primary & Secondary Awards |
|
Meet the winners of the 2017 ISTE Librarians Network Primary and Secondary Awards in the May 22nd webinar archive below.
The annual ISTE awards recognize exceptional educators and leaders who are paving the way for connected learning. We seek those whose exemplary work provides a model for teaching, learning and leading in the digital age. Thanks to everyone who participated!
This year's ISTELib Primary and Secondary Award winners are:
Karey Killian (@CoLIBRAtoRY) is the ISTELib Primary Award winner. She is the librarian for the elementary schools in the Milton Area School District in Pennsylvania. Click here for Karey's school web site. In his recommendation for Karey, David Slater, wrote, "In my 13 years as principal in the Milton Area School District, Karey Killian is the most innovative educator that I have had the pleasure to work with. I have had the privilege of working with Karey for the last 4 years as my Library Media Specialist and I must say she has created an exceptional 21st century learning environment for our students. She also serves as a technology mentor and coach to our teachers and staff. Mrs. Killian has a gift for sparking curiosity in the almost 1,000 elementary students she serves. She then nurtures that spark until the child’s passion is fully ignited. Mrs. Killian finds ways to engage students of all academic levels and has done some amazing activities with some of our highest needs students. She truly is an ambassador for incorporating technology into student learning."
Traci Chun (@TraciChun) is the teacher librarian at Skyview High School in Vancouver, Washington. In his recommendation for Traci, Mark Ray wrote, "In my TEDx talk, my model/hero of a Future Ready Librarian is Traci Chun. I described her philosophy, her actions, and her leadership as an example of what a Future Ready Librarian could be. It was an easy choice. As Future Ready Librarians Lead at the Alliance for Excellent Education, I am working with librarians and educational leaders across the U.S. Our Future Ready Librarians Framework includes ten actions that librarians can take to lead, teach and support future ready students. Traci has done all of them. She leads beyond the library both in her school and her district. It’s only a matter of time before she further leads and inspires others regionally and nationally."
Congratulations on the much deserved awards, Karey and Traci!
