NCCE: Northwest Council for Computer Education

@FETC 2027 Library Leaders Featured Speakers Announcement Libraries are no longer just places to find information—they are the innovation hubs of our schools. That’s why I am thrilled to announce the FETC 2027 Library Leaders Featured Speakers! Joining us is Connie Ann Roussel, Literacy and Innovation Leader at Randolph Elementary School. Connie is redefining what literacy looks like in the digital age, blending reading, creativity, technology, and student engagement in ways that inspire both learners and educators. Her practical strategies and innovative mindset make her a powerful voice for today’s library leaders. We’re also excited to welcome Nicholas Moore, School Librarian and leader with the Georgia Library Media Association. Nicholas is a passionate advocate for student-centered libraries, digital citizenship, and empowering learners through meaningful technology integration. His energy, leadership, and commitment to elevating the profession continue to inspire librarians across the country. Together, these two outstanding educators will equip K-12 librarians and media specialists with fresh ideas, innovative practices, and actionable strategies to transform their libraries into thriving centers of learning. Join us at #FETC 2027 and learn from two true Library Leader Power Players! 📚🚀✨

AI isn’t replacing literacy… it’s redefining it. I recently had the opportunity to share a message with the @NCCE_EdTech (Northwest Council for Computer Education) I believe every educator, leader, and innovator needs to hear: 👉 AI is empowering the literacy skills of tomorrow’s workforce. We are no longer preparing students just to read, write, and compute. We are preparing them to: 👉 Think critically alongside AI 👉 Communicate with both humans (and machines) 👉 Evaluate information in an AI-generated world 👉 Create and produce content, not just consume 👉 Adapt to constantly evolve as learners #AI literacy is quickly becoming a foundational skill set—as essential as traditional literacy, but far more dynamic. What excites me most isn’t the technology itself…It’s the human opportunity. When we intentionally integrate AI: 👉 Teachers gain time back for deeper relationships 👉 Students engage in more authentic, real-world learning 👉 Leaders can design systems that are both innovative and human-centered The future of literacy is not about tools, it is about skills and relationships. It’s about empowerment, agency, and preparing learners to thrive in a world that is constantly evolving. 💡 The question isn’t if AI belongs in education. It’s how we lead with purpose, ethics, and vision. Learn more on Friday, March 27 as we support the National AI Literacy Day to Learn How AI is Shaping Our World! Link in comments.
