Learn Library reference skills to improve yourself as a Librarian or Library Technical Assistant with the Digital Treasures satellite teleconference, and now we offer videotapes of past teleconferences, all from the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn Illinois. Welcome to our Website! Thank you for making the Digital Treasures Teleconference a success! You'll find the slides used during the teleconference here. As we promised, we are making the October 10th "Digital Treasures for Teaching and Learning" teleconference available for your review on streaming video via the Web. We hope you enjoyed it and that you will share this resource with your colleagues. There are three links for access to streaming video. If you connect via a normal telephone line and modem, please use "Digital Treasures_56K." The other two links are for broadband connections and you may want to sample both to determine which looks best on your system. We also attach links to the "Digital Treasures" Participant and Site Coordinator Evaluation Forms and would appreciate your taking a minute to share your comments with us. If you have not evaluated the original satellite broadcast, or if streaming is your first viewing, please take this opportunity to help us do the best possible job. Digital Treasures 56K Below you'll find our site left as it was prior to our teleconference for your reference. What do Kitty Hawk, the Statue of Liberty, Mark Twain, the Battle of Gettysburg, Cheyenne Indians and the Space Shuttle have in common? They are all events, people and places that can come alive as primary source information through the Library of Congress' acclaimed American Memory Collection and other digital library collections.
The award-winning Library Learning Network of the College of DuPage and the Colorado Digitization Program will present a national teleconference "Digital Treasures for Teaching and Learning" on Friday, October 10, from noon to 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The teleconference can be viewed live at libraries, universities, community colleges and other institutions with a satellite downlink. Presenters include
Teachers and librarians
who have used the American Memory and other digital primary source
materials also will be featured. Lesson plans, strategies and exercises
for incorporating photos, maps and three-dimensional artifacts into
student activities will be demonstrated. Participants will be able
to submit questions to presenters for on-air discussion. A Webliography and other support materials will be available through the teleconference's
Web site. K-12 downlink sites are free, but you must register. For all other sites, registration charges for the program (normally $500) are waived if, when you register, you identify two K-12 institutions invited as guests. This conference encourages synergy between educational institutions at all levels and with support organizations like libraries. Invite your guests, register with us and enjoy the conference at no charge! We are encouraging all
sites to be open and would like to share information on your site
with possible K-12 guests -- we will, of course, ask your permission
first. We think you gain much by sharing the conference with your
K-12 colleagues. Statewide Licenses: A number of state libraries contract with us for statewide distribution of these programs. Please check with your state library training and development coordinator for details to see if they have made such arrangements for you. Copyright © 2001-2003
