Overview

School librarians are currently exploring the use of digital learning simulations to teach students. Digital learning simulations are computer-generated environments that allow students to develop information skills as they solve simulated, information-based problems. Many school librarians are using SimLabs for the 21st-Century Learner (SimLabs 21) to integrate state-of-the-art, learning simulations into their current practices. This book guides school librarians through the effective implementation of SimLabs for the 21st-Century Learner. This book serves as the only official source for lesson plans, simulation guides and handouts designed for the simulations that teach grades 1-2 information skills within life science content. For each learning simulation, the author presents quick-start lesson plans, simulation walkthroughs and SimDocs. The quick-start lesson plans provide school librarians with a concise overview of the learning simulations. The simulation walkthroughs are detail articulations of the learning simulations. The walkthroughs allow school librarians to gain a detail understanding of the simulations without playing them. SimDocs are learning and assessment documents that accompany each simulation. Much of the learning and assessment activity occurs within the simulations; however, SimDocs ensure that school librarians have the opportunity to evaluate and record key moments of student learning.
