Teaching with Digital Content Collaborations with Cultural Institutions March 1, 2002, 9:00a.m.4:00p.m. Chicago Public Library Museum personnel and librarians are invited to attend a workshop at the Chicago Public Library on new approaches to teaching with digital content. The workshop, sponsored by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, will feature individual presentations from scholars, educators, librarians and museum personnel, as well as a panel question and answer session. Teaching with digital primary source documents brings new challenges to teachers, librarians, museum curators and educators. Using digitized primary source materials involves fundamental shifts in the service and teaching methods of curators, librarians, and teachers, regardless of their audiences. New programs need to be developed to integrate digital primary source materials into K-12 curriculum and assignments, as well as into the educational programs of museums and libraries.

Miller, Executive Director of the Illinois Heritage Association; § Nuala Bennett, Interim Coordinator, Digital Imaging and Media Technology Initiative, University of Illinois Library; § Debbie Hohulin, Dr. Howard Elementary School, Champaign; § Paul Hohulin, Centennial High School, Champaign; § Prof. Beth Sandore, Associate University Librarian for Information Technology, University of Illinois; § Prof. Evangeline Pianfetti, College of Education, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign § Prof. Paula Kaufman, University Librarian, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign § IMLS representative § CPL representative This event is open to the public.
