Workshops for Educators

I conduct workshops on classroom-library collaboration, information literacy, technology tools integration, early literacy, and storytelling.

Presentations and Keynote Addresses

I believe in sharing my learning. Whenever possible, I copresent my work with colleagues and collaborators.

Course Syllabi and Lesson Planning/Resources Support

This fall, I will be teaching IRLS 521: Children's and Young Adult Literature in a Multicultural Society, a virtual course, for the School of Information Resources and Library Science at the University of Arizona (Fall 2008).

As a teacher-librarian, I collaborated for twelve years with classroom teachers and students in Tucson-area high school and K-5 school libraries -- to integrate literature and information literacy skills into the curriculum. I have also served as a classroom teacher, literacy coach, district-level teacher-librarian mentor, preservice classroom teacher and teacher-librarian educator. Literature and libraries are my passions. I am returning to full-time work in a school library in the fall of 2008.

I am a literacies and libraries consultant. In 2003, I earned a Ph.D. from the Department of Language, Reading and Culture, University of Arizona; my research focus was media and literacy. I earned a Master's degree from the School of Information Resources and Library Science, University of Arizona, in 1992. I have taught at the university level since 1995. These are the courses I have taught: early literacy, writing, children's and young adult literature, elementary curriculum, social studies methods, electronic and information literacy, and storytelling.

I recently completed a longitudinal research study on preservice and novice classroom teachers' understanding and practice of classroom-library collaboration. My dissertation focused on the effectiveness of a week-long technology workshop to influence university-level educators' teaching practices toward a student-centered curriculum.
