Page 20: Boise charrette ppt

The Washington Coalition for School Libraries and Information Technology (WCSLit) envisions a future where every public school or small district in Washington state is served by a full-time, certified teacher-librarian who manages a fully-funded library and technology resource collection. The coalition looks to a future where students from across the state have the same access to technology, the same chance for literacy, and the same opportunity to receive a world-class education. It is our hope that Washington state standards for library and information technology education become the benchmark for library and information technology instruction across the nation.

[shuh-ret] -noun

a gathering of people for an intense period of brainstorming and design. Faced with a problem or a challenge, the participants pool their talents to produce plans to achieve a goal.

The word “charrette” means cart or chariot in French, and was used to describe the cart that was wheeled through Paris to pick up the senior projects of students at the Ecole des Beau Arts. It came to mean “hectic work required to meet a deadline”.
