Come celebrate with us…
The Mildred Johnson Library is proud to celebrate National
Library Week, April 14-19, 2013. We
invite you to share in the celebration throughout the week. In particular, on Tuesday April 16th in the afternoon from 1 to 4 pm in the
afternoon we will be initiating the beginning of EduStations featuring
EduTools. Educational learning stations to
“learn by doing” for NDSCS students, staff, and faculty to use to promote
learning! Did we mention if you visit all the stations plus take a survey, you
can register for a chance to win a NOOK
Simple Touch Reader!
The EduStations are:
·
Curriculum Topic areas including 3-D Learning
Tools (Featured area is Allied Health)
·
Dry Erase Easel for collective/individual
creative brainstorming.
·
Interactive Games – Board games for social
interaction.
·
Mango (an
interactive language program) allowing you to learn up to 41 languages with ESL
components.
·
The Barnes
and Noble Nook for check-out.
·
Last, but not least, the Apple TV & iPads (3)
allowing you to wirelessly connect to a station and have small or large group
discussions.
o
Utilizing the Apple TV and iPad a
sample training will be demonstrated with Overdrive.

Other ideas are in motion and suggestions are encouraged!
From 3-D curriculum-related learning tools to an Apple TV and iPad accessibility, the stations are in early development and will
grow based on your suggestions, needs, and wants. Please contact Tina Grenier for additional
ideas at 701-671-2612 or Tina.Grenier@ndscs.edu. In the meantime, check out the stations that
