HMS Media Center Facts
• MC original “add-on” in 1970s to what was then used as the existing high school facility (built, 1929)
• 2011-12 first year of “wireless” capability in MC & ten student computers added
• MC furnishings are leftovers from high school facility furnishings; never updated; big & “fixed”
• MC primarily used for book checkout, student research, test make-ups, and faculty/staff meetings
• 2011-12 first year of MC website linked to school web page (new web software implementation district wide; many “kinks” to work out)
• Small MC for enrollment; limited common learning space; no classroom space; limited virtual collection & access to technology/virtual collection
![Page 11: Morris d facilities plan1_a](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110302/547eb168b4af9f37448b469f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Key Media Survey Data Composites & Policy Implications
• 73% feel that the MC is not the “hub” of learning at the school• 68% want the MC to be the center of learning at the school
– Toor & Weisburg (2007) concur for students to expand their understanding of “learning” beyond the classroom walls & earning grades - to increase personal growth as the knowledge they gain via topic exploration becomes a part of who they are.
– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), promotes a SLMC learning space policy that is conducive to active & participatory learning, rich resource-based learning, and facilitates collaboration with teaching staff.
• 56% want the MC to have a more prominent web presence with research resources accessible outside school hours– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), endorses a SLMC policy that maintains a library website to
provide 24-7 access to digital information sources, instructional interventions, reference services, intra-library links, and exemplary student work.
– Also supports HMS 2011-12 School Improvement Plan which seeks to provide academic intervention resources during “Work Session” of Standards Based Classroom Instructional Schedule
– Hamilton (2009), further includes new “digital literacies” as legitimate “authoritative information sources” for today, whereby students develop social skills through digital collaboration and networking, no matter the time of day.
• 92% want more attractive & larger MC physical space– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), advocates a SLMC policy that creates a friendly, comfortable,
well-lit, aesthetically pleasing, and ergonomic space that is centrally located and well-integrated with the rest of the school (p.33).

designs learning space that accommodates a range of teaching methods, learning tasks, and learning outcomes.
• 76% do not want to participate in a media committee• 56% believe a media committee is necessary– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), advocates policy that

![Page 13: Morris d facilities plan1_a](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110302/547eb168b4af9f37448b469f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• 65% want more involvement from SLMS in instruction– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), policy analyzes the school’s instructional
program, and resulting support documents (School Improvement Plan & Achievement Data) to determine appropriate staffing patterns.
– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), promotes a SLMC learning space policy that is conducive to active & participatory learning, rich resource-based learning, and facilitates collaboration with teaching staff.
• 96% want newer equipment: Elmo document cameras, wireless throughout school, poster maker, working remotes & pointers for LCD projectors, Smart slates– Empowering Learners, AASL (2009), policy advocates funding through strategic
planning to support priorities and make steady progress towards defined goals & material needs

~STEVE JOBS, 2005 STANFORD COMMENCEMENT ADDRESSCOURTESY, HTTP://JENNYLU.WORDPRESS.COM/JENNY LU, HEAD OF INFORMATION SERVICES AT TOORAK COLLEGE IN MT.ELIZA, AUSTRALIA, A SUBURB OF MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
Never Forget…

starting on the first one.~Mark Twain
