The laptops will be used in the library for a variety of lessons and self-guided instruction. Students will access district online databases such as GALE Group, EBSCO, KidTopia, etc. to research specific subjects. These databases include access to magazine articles, videos, newspapers, and encyclopedia. The mobile devices will allow students to use the online catalog to search library materials as well. The most popular use the laptops will have in our library would be to access the vast list of websites available to our students through our district website. These online tools will allow students to create, evaluate, analyze, and think critically all by having access to a mobile device. An example of one of our favorite online tools is MyON. This online-based program allows students to read books that are geared to their Lexie levels and provide comprehension questions to test their recall knowledge. By allowing our students to have access to laptops in the library they will be able to extend their learning outside of the classroom. Students need to be allowed to think outside the box and this is where we, as educators, come in to expose them to learning and thinking off paper and pencil.
