Chapter 6. Big Impact with littleBits
Abstract
Chapter 6 of Library Technology Reports (vol. 54, no. 4), “Accessibility, Technology, and Librarianship,” Heather Moorefield Lang, Editor
Chapter 6 is titled “Big Impact with littleBits,” by Stacy Brown. How can libraries spread their resources most effectively so that technology can engage users of different ages and abilities? LittleBits have proven to be just the technology to support this mission in our library. In this chapter, the author will share how students ages four to fourteen have used the same littleBits to create projects in varying levels of complexity.
