The mission of the Spring Branch ISD Collaboration Academy for Librarians and Teachers is to leverage learning for everyone. Librarians and Teachers will successfully design and deliver a lesson taking full advantage of technology. Lessons will combine DDI, TEKS, Technology Applications, and student use of technology.
