Purpose and Vision of the Online Research and Media Skills (ORMS) Curriculum

The purpose of the online research and media skills (ORMS) curriculum is to prepare students for emerging literacy skills required in online environments. Simultaneously these new skills are designed to reinforce reading, writing, speaking, listening, and viewing of content area knowledge.

CTECS Library Media Centers are learning commons driven by collaboration between the librarian and the classroom teacher. This curriculum is both content based and skill driven incorporating a co-teaching model. The library media specialist provides expertise and instruction in the technical and pedagogical knowledge of using print and digital sources and publishing using digital tools. The academic/trade teacher provides the content knowledge of shaping instruction using both print and digital sources.
