MEDIA CENTER

I. PHILOSOPHY

  A. Individual Program

     We believe that the media program within a school should provide services, materials, equipment and personnel to assist the entire school staff in developing an effective educational program. The media program of a school should, by its nature and organization, be a flexible and pervasive one, which implements and enriches every phase of the total curriculum. All media resources should be directed toward implementing an effective educational program, based on the thesis that each student differs from the other in personality, character, background and potential. We should provide leadership in motivating full utilization of resources, stimulating latent interests, and encouraging the exploration of new ideas, new areas, and untried methods. This may be accomplished through the provision of abundant and accessible resources to meet the changing needs of the students and instructors.

  B. Course Purposes and Objectives

     1. Serve as an integral part of the school's instructional program, contributing to the development and implementation of the total curriculum, and to the achievement of the educational objectives of the school.
     2. Provide variety and depth in the selection of all types of media, with adequate equipment available for use in support of the educational program.
     3. Provide flexible design in physical arrangement of facilities to accommodate use by individual students and teachers and small or large groups, whether in centralized or decentralized setting.
     4. Provide efficient organization and easy accessibility to all services, materials and equipment for student and teacher use before, during, and after the school day.
     5. Participate with teachers in the planning and implementation of the curriculum as a means of integrating media services with the instructional program.
     6. Instruct students in media and research skills evolving from needs of the instructional program.
     7. Provide consultative and special services to teachers in support of their educational roles, and co-ordinated in-service programs in the production and use of instructional media.
     8. Provide a multiplicity of learning opportunities for the individual, which offer the challenge and motivation necessary to aid in his intellectual, social and emotional development.
     9. Evaluate the media program in support of the educational philosophy and purposes of the school, and the needs and interests of students and teachers.

  C. Course Content
     In order to implement all media activities the Center must be planned to carry on the following processes by the media staff:
