In order to engage, enable, and empower the iGeneration, we must become iLibrarians. iLibrarians teach with an iAttitude and equip themselves with iTools such as iPads, ebooks, social media, mobile learning devices, IWB technologies, and more. Bring your iAttitude and your digital backpack to take- away some iTools.

whom digital technologies already
existed when they were born, and

7. “iGeners are growing up
with portable technology.
Literally from birth, these
children are able to grow
up using mobile
technology,” he said. “But I
also look at the little ‘i’ as
reflecting the
individualized culture—
reflecting our needs and
desires.”

st

the masses, facilitate and cultivate collaboration and
innovation, serve as a catalyst to move users from
consumers to producers, protect and preserve all
aspects of human knowledge and rule the information

68. “…It’s about adding quality
back into the equation and
putting a human filter between
you and the overwhelming
world of content abundance
that is swirling around us every
day. Curation replaces noise
with clarity.”

69. Brian Solis says “…a curator is the
that in social media…
keeper of their interest
…By discovering,
organizing, and
sharing relevant
content from around
the Web, curators
invest in the integrity
and vibrancy of their
nicheworks.

93. We must educate the
students we have, not the
student we used to have,
nor the student we wished
we had. We must adapt to
today's student, not them
adapting to us. We must
adapt to their world of
today's 21st century
technology. We cannot
teach like we've taught
forever anymore. We must
change ourselves to adapt

94. We shouldn't
expect
"out of the box"
thinking
when we only
employ
"in the box"
teaching.
