At StarWalk Kids Media we are committed to serving a community of educators who believe in the importance of instilling 21st Century digital literacy skills in their students. In order to achieve this, we have created a collection designed to support educators who are looking for the highest quality, well-written trade books, both fiction and nonfiction, to make fascinating content available to all kids regardless of their reading levels.
Teachers, Librarians, and School Media Specialists face increasing challenges in this era of escalating pressure for higher educational achievement, complicated by deep cuts to most public school budgets. Though they may not have tech backgrounds, all educators are now finding that they need to get comfortable quickly, as technology in schools is no longer relegated to the computer lab. Classrooms not only have desktop computers, but now they are beginning to be equipped with interactive whiteboards, iPads, Kindles and all manner of BYOD devices.
Children are digital natives who love gadgets and technology, and even reluctant readers are engaged by these new reading devices. The problem is, how do teachers and media specialists access quality digital literature, both fiction and nonfiction, to use in schools and libraries? StarWalk Kids Media is working with educators to develop solutions to these issues.
