Mindful Teaching with Technology: Digital Diligence in the English Language Arts, Grades 6-12
Technology is integral to teaching in the English language arts, whether in-person, hybrid, or remote. In this indispensable guide, Troy Hicks shows how to teach and model "digital diligence"--an alert, intentional stance that helps both teachers and students use technology productively, ethically, and responsibly. Resources and lesson ideas are presented to build adolescents' skills for protecting online privacy, minimizing digital distraction, breaking through “filter bubbles,” fostering civil conversations, evaluating information on the internet, creating meaningful digital writing, and deeply engaging with multimedia texts. Dozens of websites, apps, and other tools are reviewed, with links provided at the companion website; end-of-chapter teaching points and guiding questions facilitate learning and application.

I'm so grateful that Troy allowed me to preview this spectacular text. In a field (edtech) filled with a lot of phonies, he is one of the most forward-thinking, well-read, and knowledgeable scholars.
It's the School Librarian's number one job to teach. Period, end of story, no arguing. When someone asks me what they teach or what they should teach, my new answer is this book. The lessons in this book, or adaptations of these lessons, are what they should be teaching.
