Teacher Librarian Part Two focuses on program planning and collaborative teaching and assessment within the learning commons context described in Together for Learning: School Libraries and the Emergence of the Learning Commons (OSLA, 2010). The emphasis is on developing learning partnerships and on designing performance tasks and curriculum units that foster literacy development, cultivate competencies for inquiry and research, and leverage technology for learning. We explore strategies for creating learning environments that foster collaboration and creativity in the physical and virtual spaces of the school library.
