Gale Training

[00:00:03.000]
Welcome to your training for the Washington State Library. Today's session is supported. Unlock the possibilities with Gale resources, and this is for grades 6. Through 12.

[00:00:14.000]
My name is Tammi Burke. I'm a senior trainer at Gale, and I thank you all for taking time out of your day to meet with me and learn a little bit more about your Gale resources. Any questions that you have, please feel free to ask in the Q. And A. Box anytime. I will also stay on at the end of today's training session to answer any additional questions that you may have.

[00:00:34.000]
For today's training. We will focus on how your resources, your Gale resources from the Washington State Library can be integrated into 6th through 12th grade learning in the classroom, and we'll also focus on the content and features within the gale resources we have. I have, quite a list of resources. I would like to touch into, and since we have a good amount of time, hopefully, I can at least touch into all of them. I will be covering them.

[00:00:59.000]
In the Powerpoint, I may not be able to dive deeper into each one. Live.

[00:01:05.000]
But know this, that the functionality across all of your resources is the exact same. So if I'm showing you a tool or feature in one of the resources. It's the same in your other gale resources. So that keeps it nice and simple, especially for students, because everything is built on the same platform, the plain, the same digital platform. So it really helps students out.

[00:01:28.000]
And they're learning because they'll find all those tools and features in the same spots. So.

[00:01:33.000]
With that. Let's jump into our agenda.

[00:01:37.000]
And first, st we are going to talk about access. I always cover access into the resources so that you are aware that you do have a.

[00:01:45.000]
Washington State Library gale, support site available that has not only your access links, but so much more so. We're going to talk a little bit about that, and then I will give you an overview of all your Gale resources. We're going to send it, be spending the majority of our time browsing resource, features and tools. We'll look at search options, advanced search topic, finder, all the great features within your resources, along with.

[00:02:10.000]
Content. So I have different scenarios for each resource to kind of help us frame our thinking as we're going into each of the resources.

[00:02:19.000]
Any questions. Again, please feel free to use that. QA. Box.

[00:02:24.000]
And I will also leave you at the end with my contact information and also your Gale customer. Success managers. They are your one on one support and all things Gale.

[00:02:34.000]
So I'll provide you with their contact information at the end of today's training. It will also be in the follow up email. So if you are looking for help.

[00:02:41.000]
With those access links that you so you can add them to your library website. You can reach out to your customer success managers, or you want to work, walk through all of the great support materials or you're looking. You're interested in your usage reports. They can help with all of these things.

[00:02:57.000]
And so much, Martha fantastic, and cover our fields very well, and know a lot about the state that they're working with.

[00:03:05.000]
So let's talk about access to your Washington State Library resources. You can go directly to the support site. This is a really good site to bookmark, and I will share this in the chat for those of you attending the live session. It is a really great site to bookmark, because not only will you find your access information there.

[00:03:26.000]
As you see, when I 1st access the site, what I would want to do is find my library name, and then click, proceed. If you do not find your library name, let me know today, or after the fact again, you'll have my contact information and we'll get you in touch with the contact at the Washington State Library, and they can help you out with that process.

[00:03:48.000]
So. But this once you do find your library name, then you are taken to all of your gale resources, all the product links. So you can see here any upcoming webinars will always be.

[00:04:01.000]
Front and center on the homepage.

[00:04:03.000]
Or you can simply access the resources, the ebooks, all the training materials or marketing materials right from that homepage.

[00:04:10.000]
Once I.

[00:04:12.000]
Enter in my library name. It will take me right into the products, and these are all the direct Urls for all of your Washington State Library resources.

[00:04:21.000]
You will find that you can export the links right here. If you want the entire list. Or if you're looking for certain product families like today, we're focusing on almost completely a certain product family. But I worked in a couple of others.

[00:04:36.000]
That supports 6 through 12th grade students. So that might be a really helpful tool. And then, of course, you have ebooks, training materials, marketing materials, and then the list goes on. There.

[00:04:49.000]
So let's talk about your Gale resources again. If you have any questions, just let me know in that. QA. Box.

[00:04:55.000]
I want to talk to you about the building blocks that you have available. Now, we are not going to go into this 1st one, but it is great to know that you have Gale In context elementary. It's a kindergarten through 5th grade resource.

[00:05:06.000]
And it's a great place for younger learners to learn about animals, plants, music, sports, and more.

[00:05:13.000]
Or learners that might need a lower reading level. So keep that in mind. It is very simple.

[00:05:20.000]
To grab content using our get link tool.

[00:05:25.000]
From an elementary resource, and still share it with.

[00:05:30.000]
Your middle schoolers are possibly even high schoolers that need that lower reading level. You can do that without them having to go right into an elementary product which is really helpful, because they don't feel embarrassed that their information is slightly different. But you will find great content there that is available. So keep that in mind as an option, even though we're talking about secondary resources, that you do have access.

[00:05:53.000]
Access to this one also.

[00:05:56.000]
And we know with Covid that there's a lot of reading happening for students of all ages. So just know that you have that one available.

[00:06:05.000]
Gale In Context: Middle School. It's an engaging cross, curricular resource with primary sources and poetry, and so much more.

[00:06:14.000]
These are again our building blocks, elementary middle school, and then the final one is high school, and these are in our in contact suite. They are all cross-curricular.

[00:06:26.000]
And this last one is for our high school students. So featuring again crossricular content, you'll find a little bit of everything available within these resources.

[00:06:36.000]
The content on topics within geography, history, science, literature, social issues, and so much more.

[00:06:43.000]
And then the final one in your in contact suite that I want to mention for secondary students is Gale in context, global issues and global issues supports global awareness. You're going to find that global viewpoint or point of view.

[00:06:58.000]
It explores issues within government, health, science, society, culture and so much more. So it gives that global perspective.

[00:07:06.000]
Of what's happening around the world.

[00:07:08.000]
And all of these resources you'll find content related to curriculum standards.

[00:07:13.000]
Also the ability to filter by content levels and lexile measure always.

[00:07:19.000]
For our students.

[00:07:21.000]
Another resource you have available is Gale ebooks. Now the Gale Ebook collection solely depends on what the Washington State Library has purchased for you all, or you may have your own gale ebook collection, and so combined, you will have your ebook collection that you that your library has, or district has purchased from Gale directly, and then also, in addition.

[00:07:44.000]
The ebooks that the Washington State Library has purchased, and it all lives on the same location. Id for you all. So that would be definitely a case where he would want to use your own direct URL, so that you can see your own purchases plus the collection from the Washington State Library. So keep that in mind they all live in the same spot, makes it really simple for accessing that information.

[00:08:07.000]
You will find with your Gale ebooks. They are 24, 7, content, unlimited, simultaneous access. So all students could be accessing one book or one chapter within a book, at the same time.

[00:08:19.000]
There are no holds or unlimited access to these ebooks.

[00:08:25.000]
Mobile, responsive, just like your other resources. This resource is also mobile, responsive.

[00:08:31.000]
Unlimited download. So you can download these books, these ebooks. If you want to download the book, you can go in and download certain sections, or you can go cover to cover.

[00:08:41.000]
To download the individual chapters. If there are chapters, or it could be just sections within the book.

[00:08:47.000]
You can do that too.

[00:08:49.000]
A very intuitive search and browse feature. The.

[00:08:52.000]
This basic search and all of our resources. Such a fantastic job! I absolutely love it and Gale ebooks, because I always picture.

[00:09:00.000]
If I had all of these books in front of me. These print books in front of me.

[00:09:05.000]
How would I find what I'm looking for with our.

[00:09:08.000]
Intuitive search and browse feature. It makes it really simple to find content.

[00:09:12.000]
Right away within the resources and filter that content down even further, you can even search within just a collection if you want. So you don't have to search the entire collection. But if you just wanted to search, say, within your literature, you can do that very easily.

[00:09:30.000]
We also have topic finder which is one of our search options available and all the Galel resources I'm going to share with you today is a visual representation of your search results. It's also an interactive tool. And our students love it.

[00:09:43.000]
Are all of your resources will translate into over 50 languages. At the document level. You have that ability to translate. Believe we're at 57 languages. Now.

[00:09:53.000]
We also have the text to speech option and the ability to download as an Mp. 3. So students can listen to the text being read aloud to them.

[00:10:01.000]
And then, of course, our integration with Microsoft, Onedrive and Google Drive and Google classroom. So all are available right from within the resources.

[00:10:11.000]
Another resource I love to share is Gale literature. Litfinder, Litfinder is where you're going to find original literary works. There's over 130,000 poems, plus the poetry citations. We have over 11,000 short stories and novels, 4,000 essays, 2,000 plus speeches, over 1,300 plays, and so much more available. Even along those those speeches.

[00:10:36.000]
We have inaugural speeches available. So lots of great content, especially with the election coming up. Maybe you're doing a study and not just in Ela. This is a good one, too, to share with your social studies teachers for those inaugural speeches, and so much more. Sometimes it's essays that they're looking for. That maybe someone has written, and that's related to.

[00:11:00.000]
Like, I said, the election, or something within history, so great tools available or great content available here to support. Not just your Ela folks.

[00:11:09.000]
But other academic areas of your school or district, or your library. If you're coming from public library all different areas to support there.

[00:11:21.000]
More resources. So you even have more available. Now, I focus the 1st slides on resources that I would suggest for.

[00:11:29.000]
6th through 12th grade. There is one other that I want to share with you.

[00:11:34.000]
And that is I wanted, I should say, point out to you, and that is in our one file collection high School edition. I did see a question is unlimited, simultaneous access available for ebooks we purchased also. Yes, if you purchase gale ebooks that it's the same thing across all of your ebook collection, unlimited, simultaneous access, no check in or checkout.

[00:11:55.000]
So, yes, it's absolutely available.

[00:11:58.000]
Thank you for asking.

[00:12:01.000]
So let me talk through these collections first, st and then I'll come back and talk a little bit more about this one.

[00:12:06.000]
You have a business suite of resources, Gale. Business insights, Gale business, entrepreneurship and Gale business one file. So this is kind of a what to use when. So you're just familiar with this information that you have.

[00:12:20.000]
For this 1st one Gale business insights is.

[00:12:24.000]
Has great company, profiles.

[00:12:27.000]
It has swot analysis. Plunket reports you're going to find industry information. This is a really great resource to introduce to those teachers that are teaching. Maybe some of those elective courses in business or entrepreneurship.

[00:12:40.000]
Gale, business, entrepreneurship. If students are working on writing a business plan, you can use these. We have all the business plans from the business plans, handbook, all available here in Gale business entrepreneurship along with so many different documents. Videos, images. You're going to find some media here, too, in managing a business or opening a business. But the business plans are great for schools, because students may be working on a business.

[00:13:05.000]
This plan, and you will find them here within Gale business, entrepreneurship.

[00:13:10.000]
Great to use as a mentor text for some of those classes. And then when you're really looking for periodical information, gale, one file business. So anything with one file in the title.

[00:13:22.000]
Is going to be periodical content.

[00:13:25.000]
Academic journals, magazines, newspapers. It's focused more on that periodical content.

[00:13:31.000]
Where you're in context resources like Gale In context, college.

[00:13:35.000]
Has periodical content, but it also has really rich multimedia content.

[00:13:40.000]
So you'll find a little bit more of that multimedia within your in contact suite of resources. So we do have gallon Context college also available.

[00:13:49.000]
In your periodical suite. I pulled out a few here. Few. I want to point out, Gale academic one file. This is used at the higher Ed level. But also this is a great one for your accelerated programs.

[00:14:02.000]
That you have at your in your buildings, or if you're doing any public library, and you're doing some outreach to higher Ed students, you can promote this resource academic one file. It is focused more on those academic journals.

[00:14:13.000]
Where general one file is focused more on those popular magazines. You are also going to find newspapers and some media here, but it's our largest, just, general periodical resource, that we have.

[00:14:28.000]
And then focusing more on news content. You'll find.

[00:14:32.000]
Gale one file news, and then we have some very subject. I did not add them all. That's why we have this collections here, but just to show you computer science, diversity studies a great one for teachers. Reference complete. I love this resource as a former educator. This is a fantastic resource.

[00:14:50.000]
For Spanish and Portuguese periodicals in Academico.

[00:14:55.000]
And then, when you're looking for that resource that has periodical content newspapers, magazines, academic journals. But you want it geared more towards high school.

[00:15:06.000]
That's where high school edition can come into play.

[00:15:08.000]
It really is a great resource for a lot of those current topics that students are studying or current events.

[00:15:15.000]
Civics, classes. Anywhere you use. Periodical content is designed and geared towards our high school students.

[00:15:23.000]
And then in the health suite. You have health and wellness, and this is a great one, not only for your health classes, but also Phys. Ed.

[00:15:33.000]
And counselors.

[00:15:35.000]
Because you're going to find great information in this resource on, say, anxiety or depression.

[00:15:40.000]
Stress. Those things that students are dealing with. So health and wellness is a great, we call it the consumer.

[00:15:47.000]
Resource. So it's more for that consumer level where health and medicine, which is in our one file suite.

[00:15:54.000]
Health and medicine is more for those medical students.

[00:15:58.000]
Medical professionals, nursing students. That's this is geared more towards those folks.

[00:16:04.000]
So if you have any of those types of maybe you have some health out classes, or you have some cte courses that are focusing more on health and medicine. Maybe you have students that are, studying to be cas. These are the resources that they might be interested in health and medicine and nursing and allied health.

[00:16:24.000]
And then also we have in the one file suite of health, physical therapy and sports medicine.

[00:16:30.000]
Alright. So that's an overview of not like, I said, not all of your resources, because there's quite a few more one file collections, and they're subsets. So they're smaller focus, like diversity studies.

[00:16:43.000]
That you can find within your complete resources.

[00:16:49.000]
Last thing I want to cover before we jump into the live.

[00:16:53.000]
Products themselves is some tools I want you to keep in mind.

[00:16:57.000]
And we're going to. I'm going to model these for you today. But 1st to share content. You have a variety of options. You have the ability to use the get link tool to share, to Google classroom, to send a Google drive. And Microsoft onedrive.

[00:17:11.000]
Oh, Erna. Thanks for asking. I appreciate that. You want to see each one as I talk about them.

[00:17:18.000]
But they're really there's so many. There's not a lot of time. That's why this is an overview of your complete suite of resources. But thank you for asking again. This would be a great one on one conversation with your Gale customer, success manager, and they can walk you through each one. I wish I could open each one, but there just isn't enough time, and we need to focus on 6 through 12th grade. So thank you for asking, though.

[00:17:43.000]
Yes, no, they're not live links. They again go if you go to the support page that I mentioned. That's where.

[00:17:50.000]
You would be wanting to those live links and access those live links.

[00:17:57.000]
And zoom, and here's the thing with zoom.

[00:18:01.000]
Perfect great. Thank you. Zoom doesn't offer that option in the in the zoom webinars to click into the live links. I know teams does.

[00:18:12.000]
But teams also doesn't work on all.

[00:18:15.000]
No system is perfect. Let's just put it that way. No system is absolutely perfect. Zoom is as close as we can get to everything that we need to support our States and our trainings, and all of, when you're talking about supporting accessibility features not that I need to go into this, but just so that you're aware. But yeah, that, unfortunately, is not a feature that is available.

[00:18:39.000]
I'm glad that you're going live into the resource. So let's go back to sharing content. You have the get link tool, the ability to share, to Google classroom, the send to with Microsoft and Google onedrive.

[00:18:51.000]
You. I'm sorry. Google drive and Microsoft onedrive.

[00:18:54.000]
To support accessibility. You have the translate font size. Listen and display options. I'm going to model all of these here for you today, in case we have some folks that aren't super familiar with the.

[00:19:06.000]
Tools and features within the resources.

[00:19:08.000]
Encourage analysis. You'll find highlights and notes is a great tool to support deeper learning. It has color, coding and annotation available, and then to develop those research skills. We have topic pages that are aligned to curriculum standards or subjects of study, as I've already mentioned. And also we take a look at when we're creating those topic pages. We have subject matter experts.

[00:19:32.000]
And also our content editors, and they look at not only curriculum standards, but they look at usage. They hear from you all what's trending. If there's a topic page that they can curate the collection of information together into a topic page they work really hard on that.

[00:19:49.000]
We have topic which is again a visual representation of your search results that I'm going to share with you. And then our great citation tool.

[00:20:00.000]
And the last thing I want to mention is we are integrated with learning management systems. So if you're using canvas or schoology in your buildings. Then you can integrate your resources, your Gale resources from the Washington State Library right into your learning management system, where.

[00:20:18.000]
Your teachers can embed articles directly into assignments, pages.

[00:20:23.000]
Or they can add a link. Both options are available. It really is a great place to reach students where they're learning and also teachers where they are posting.

[00:20:34.000]
Their assignments. It makes it really simple to pull that content in. And it can be anything, an article, a video, an image.

[00:20:40.000]
It's really easy to do once.

[00:20:43.000]
The resources have been added to your learning management system, and that process is actually quite simple. Our customer success managers, can help with that process.

[00:20:54.000]
Alright, so let's dive into the resources. We'll come back to Gale. Support.

[00:21:00.000]
When at the end of today's training.

[00:21:03.000]
So let me dive into our 1st one, and that is Gale In context.

[00:21:07.000]
Middle school.

[00:21:11.000]
So Gale In context, middle school. I want to point out a few items and again, remember, shared tools and features across all your gale. Resources.

[00:21:19.000]
In the upper toolbar. You are going to find the ability to translate.

[00:21:24.000]
The navigational tools. We're at 34 languages here. So this will I like to choose Italian will translate all of our navigational tools on within the resource, so it'll help me navigate through my resource in a language that I need.

[00:21:40.000]
I can go back to English.

[00:21:42.000]
I also have the ability to sign in with Google.

[00:21:47.000]
If your students are using shared computers or at your public library, it might be a best practice that you want to share, to have them sign in.

[00:21:55.000]
1st to Google or Microsoft, just in case the last student did not.

[00:22:00.000]
If you close your browser it'll log you out. So that's also a best practice. But in case it's still open and they didn't sign out, then that's a best practices to make sure that they sign in right away. Now when they go to. If they didn't sign in and they forget, and they go to send information to their Google Drive or Microsoft onedrive. They would be prompted to sign in at that time. But again, just in case.

[00:22:24.000]
Somebody else didn't log out or like, I said, close their browser is the easiest way for students to do that.

[00:22:30.000]
Is then they'll catch that before they make a mistake and send information to someone else's Google drive.

[00:22:37.000]
Those that are set up as Google classroom teachers.

[00:22:41.000]
Once they sign in, they can post information directly to Google classroom. So all of your teachers can.

[00:22:47.000]
Put information directly in their Google classroom. It's really easy to do.

[00:22:51.000]
Course, we have our basic search and advanced search. We have our contextual toolbar over here to the right hand side.

[00:22:58.000]
And I'll talk more about those tools and features. But they do change, depending on where I'm at, within the resource and what tools I actually need for that spot within the resource.

[00:23:07.000]
You will see we have topics of interest, and they change every month. We have 3 that are at the top. Where give, that gives you the option to jump into.

[00:23:15.000]
And explore this topic more.

[00:23:17.000]
Below. We have subject categories with images. Because this is middle school. We're starting to bridge them into the high school resources. So we start with images, but if I click on.

[00:23:28.000]
Let's say literature.

[00:23:31.000]
Then it takes me to all of the.

[00:23:34.000]
Pages the I should say, the topic pages that we have available, and it takes us to that text view where our elementary.

[00:23:44.000]
We take them into that text so they can quickly jump. These are all linked out. These are all the topic pages that we have available.

[00:23:52.000]
For the topic of literature.

[00:23:54.000]
Now do we have more information.

[00:23:57.000]
In this resource on literature that maybe you're not seeing a topic page, for absolutely we do.

[00:24:03.000]
Like, I said, the topic pages are curated collections of information. So if you're not seeing a topic page here to a basic search, and you're still going to pull back some content.

[00:24:15.000]
Alright. So let's let's go back. I'm going to go back to that homepage.

[00:24:19.000]
And I want to share with you. So let's say I'm a middle school teacher. I'm kicking off a unit of study on the Civil Rights movement.

[00:24:27.000]
And I'm looking for supplemental content. I want video content.

[00:24:31.000]
Video content to engage students. And I want to build their knowledge. And I'm looking for some primary sources. So where can I go within this resource, to find that.

[00:24:40.000]
Well, a quick way to do that is for to do a basic search. Now, I could go into any of these.

[00:24:46.000]
Categories like, I said, the subject categories, but.

[00:24:49.000]
When I do a basic search. And I'm looking at, I'm starting to type in civil rights.

[00:24:54.000]
You can see at the top of my list.

[00:24:57.000]
I have topic guides which I also call topic pages.

[00:25:01.000]
And I have also a little thumbnail image, and that is telling me, letting me know that. Yes, I do have a topic guide for.

[00:25:09.000]
That term that I'm starting to type in. So search is really helpful. I'm writing. I was starting to write civil rights movement. I don't need to go any further. I can just jump right to my topic. Page.

[00:25:20.000]
Topic. Pages have an image and an essay overview.

[00:25:24.000]
You will also see all of the different content types in the center of the page.

[00:25:28.000]
And I can quickly jump to any of those areas. If I want just some looking for just images, I can click on images and go directly there.

[00:25:35.000]
I also have the ability to search within. Now this search option will just search through all of this content. If I go back up to this basic search at the top.

[00:25:46.000]
It's going to search the entire database.

[00:25:49.000]
So keep that in mind. And that's a great many lesson. Also, when you're teaching those research skills to middle schoolers is to use the search within option. If they're looking for specific term within that topic page to help them quickly drill down and find that content.

[00:26:04.000]
You're going to find. All of the content types have their own boxes or buckets here below.

[00:26:09.000]
Reference biographies. I'm going to scroll down as you can see, videos, audio magazine news. We have some primary sources.

[00:26:17.000]
Some creative works available for this one. And then look at all these related topic pages.

[00:26:23.000]
So I'm not limited to just this topic. Page, we're linked out related content. These are related topic pages that I can do some additional.

[00:26:31.000]
Research on or for myself. As as I said, let's say, I'm a teacher, right, and I'm looking for supplemental content. I might want to go down that path and take a look at one of those other topic pages.

[00:26:43.000]
Let's go right to our video content. We have 50 videos available here.

[00:26:54.000]
And within these videos there's 1 i wanted to share with you. And it's this newsreel from 1,963. It's a civil rights. March on Washington.

[00:27:03.000]
Open that up. Few features I want to point out. Here. Let me turn that volume on.

[00:27:08.000]
A.

[00:27:11.000]
So we do. I can make this whole screen.

[00:27:14.000]
I have closed captioning, available.

[00:27:17.000]
Below. I have the transcript.

[00:27:22.000]
The Complete Transcript.

[00:27:24.000]
And then, of course, I have the video here.

[00:27:28.000]
Now, if I wanted to share this video.

[00:27:31.000]
With my students. I wanted to grab a link that directed them exactly to this spot.

[00:27:36.000]
I could use my get link feature here.

[00:27:38.000]
Get. Link provides a persistence right here in my contextual toolbar.

[00:27:42.000]
It provides a persistent URL back to this exact spot.

[00:27:46.000]
My students won't need to authenticate or worry about anything like that. It takes them directly into.

[00:27:51.000]
This video.

[00:27:54.000]
So it'll open up that resource. I can copy and paste it wherever I want my students to find this information. Not only that, but I can also use Google classroom the same way.

[00:28:05.000]
Where I can share this video directly in my Google classroom.

[00:28:09.000]
With, and I'll model that. And when I'm going to go into something else for that one, but you can pull it into wherever you can use the get link. You can also use Google classroom.

[00:28:18.000]
Now, if I were integrated with a learning management system, and I were accessing, let's say, through canvas.

[00:28:25.000]
I would access Gale In context middle school through canvas. And then when I got to the document level, or in this case, video.

[00:28:33.000]
I would see the 2 blue links at the top, 2 boxes, one that would say, embed, and one that would ask me if I wanted to add a link.

[00:28:42.000]
And what would happen is if I chose. Let's say embed, it would pull this video right into my assignment.

[00:28:50.000]
It's so easy like I said, that integration is amazing because it makes it very simple and same thing with Google classroom. It would pull this video directly into my Google classroom. Whatever I chose. Maybe I'm creating an assignment, and it would be right there. And so students would see my instructions, and then also be able to access this video. So it really is a great way to share content with students.

[00:29:15.000]
And again we have the transcript below that can be translated the closed captioning.

[00:29:22.000]
Is cannot be translated at the it's not available through what is this publisher? It's it's a lot of times. It's the publisher that decides that information. So right now, this is available in English, and I can turn those captions on or off. But I can translate.

[00:29:38.000]
The text below.

[00:29:43.000]
Alright! Let me go. I want to go back out to the topic. Page.

[00:29:48.000]
And this time I'm going to go into my primary sources.

[00:29:54.000]
And maybe I want to filter this content down.

[00:29:57.000]
Maybe I I can see I have some level fives here which.

[00:30:02.000]
Our content levels. I'm going to show you the filter, your results. And I'm going to focus on content levels.

[00:30:07.000]
But I do have publication, date.

[00:30:11.000]
Where I can put in a custom range, or I can choose past year. I really like customation data, especially when I'm looking at magazines and newspapers.

[00:30:21.000]
Where our reference content.

[00:30:23.000]
Not so much because some of that's coming from encyclopedias. So I wouldn't want to limit that.

[00:30:28.000]
At all. I would want to keep that nice and wide open. Same with our primary sources.

[00:30:32.000]
Right. But maybe with those magazines, newspapers, and then in the high school resources, the academic journals, I might want to filter it down if I'm looking for something very current.

[00:30:43.000]
Now civil rights, movement.

[00:30:45.000]
A lot of this information might be more historical, but we can look for if there's anything new that's been added to by utilizing the publication date.

[00:30:53.000]
I have subjects where I can select a subject, or do a search.

[00:30:58.000]
Document types. I love document types, especially for social studies, because we are going to find letters. We have a manifesto. We might have diary or diary entries. Here's a speech. There's.

[00:31:10.000]
All kinds of great information documents. So you're going to find great document type options available.

[00:31:18.000]
We also have publication titles.

[00:31:20.000]
So if there are any certain publications that your teachers use in their buildings or in their with their classroom, and maybe, budget doesn't allow for it. See if we have it available. Here we have all the title lists.

[00:31:35.000]
For all of our resources available on the Gale support site. It's very easy to find that information.

[00:31:41.000]
So, and again, your customer success managers, if you want that one on one walkthrough can help you with that, too.

[00:31:48.000]
But that just know that that public, those publication titles, are there.

[00:31:52.000]
Lexile measure, if I need, and especially for middle school, I might want to select multi, select a few ranges here.

[00:31:59.000]
Now content level. This is the easiest way to filter down information.

[00:32:04.000]
So you can see level ones and twos. This is generally our elementary. If you have students that need that that low of Alexa level at the middle school level. Then I would start searching in Gale In context, elementary, because that's where you're going to find a lot of your level ones and twos. This resource galan context, middle school.

[00:32:23.000]
Is designed for 6 through 8th graders. So the reading level is going to be.

[00:32:27.000]
A little higher. It's going to be at their reading level, and even a little bit higher than that, because we know a lot of students. I know my kids.

[00:32:34.000]
We're definitely reading at a higher reading level.

[00:32:37.000]
So they were ready for that next step. So they they needed those.

[00:32:41.000]
Excuse me, those level 4. So that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to filter to threes and fours.

[00:32:47.000]
And apply that.

[00:32:52.000]
And now not only does it filter down my primary sources, but it filtered down everything at once.

[00:32:58.000]
So if I wanted to share this with my students, I could use the get link tool. It would take them back to this filtered information content level 3 and 4, and I always say level 3 is middle school. So if you remember that everything above.

[00:33:12.000]
Goes up to high school all the way to undergrad, and everything below is elementary that keeps it nice and simple for you all.

[00:33:20.000]
But you can see it filters down everything at once. I can grab a link back to this, a persistent URL, using the get link tool.

[00:33:28.000]
And it will take my students directly to this spot.

[00:33:32.000]
Again, I can also pull this into Google classroom. So if I wanted to create an assignment.

[00:33:39.000]
I can just select Google classroom.

[00:33:42.000]
Choose my class.

[00:33:44.000]
And let's go to social studies.

[00:33:48.000]
Maybe I want to create an assignment. I can create an assignment, ask a question, make an announcement, or create material.

[00:33:54.000]
So all the same things you can do in Google classroom. You can do here.

[00:33:58.000]
Because it's Google classroom. We're just pulling content into it.

[00:34:02.000]
And let's say.

[00:34:04.000]
This is, I'm just going to write civil rights movement.

[00:34:13.000]
Any instructions I want. Maybe I want them to select a primary source.

[00:34:24.000]
And then I could leave more instructions. I'm not going to do that today. Choose how many points. Maybe it's ungraded or I can put in. Maybe it's only 25 points.

[00:34:34.000]
Choose my due date.

[00:34:37.000]
I used to have my.

[00:34:39.000]
Training colleagues were my students.

[00:34:41.000]
And they would get assignments all the time.

[00:34:44.000]
From me with due dates, and they'd be like, you're stressing me out. I don't have time to get this assignment done. I wasn't actually assigning them. But and then you have that option to close submissions after due date. But it was just fun to kind of mess with each other a little bit.

[00:34:58.000]
I can assign that.

[00:35:03.000]
And then. Now I have the option to view. When I click view, it's going to open in a new tab.

[00:35:09.000]
Here's my Google classroom. I can see. I created a new assignment.

[00:35:13.000]
I can open that up. And first, st it takes me to my. What I'm seeing is that no one's turned anything in. That's the student work. If I go to instructions, this is what my students would see.

[00:35:25.000]
So they would see my instructions, and then that information is.

[00:35:30.000]
Hyperlinked out so they can directly click on this link.

[00:35:33.000]
And go right to this, that exact spot that I was in.

[00:35:37.000]
With the filters ready to go. So it's really simple to do and share with your students.

[00:35:48.000]
Okay, let me go back. I got too many here, there we go. So back to our.

[00:35:54.000]
Filtered content.

[00:35:56.000]
And maybe I am interested in this document.

[00:36:01.000]
The rest of Rosa Parks from December first.st

[00:36:04.000]
What I'm seeing 1st is a little bit of information, and then you can see the direct commentary here, or exactly what happens. So it's a great sum to each primary source is a little different. Sometimes we have some commentary at the top explaining, and then we go live into, or I should say, as you scroll down, you'll see if it happens to be a primary source, like a letter, for example. Then you would see that letter listed here below. This is a direct.

[00:36:29.000]
Direct account from Rosa Parks as to what happened that day.

[00:36:33.000]
So an incredible primary source to use. You can see some related information is here which will take us to biographical information.

[00:36:40.000]
So you'll see some of that related content or documents available at the bottom. Sometimes on these primary sources.

[00:36:48.000]
We talked about get link. And we talked about Google classrooms. So if there's no questions on middle school, I would like to go into your next resource.

[00:36:55.000]
And that is Gale In Context: high School.

[00:36:59.000]
I am using my Gale page to access this information. This is a complimentary resource site that we create for every account. So it's available.

[00:37:09.000]
So I just use that one. And I'm using the Washington State libraries location.

[00:37:14.000]
Today, Gale In context, high school.

[00:37:18.000]
Again, topics of interest are at the top. You can see tools and features are all in the same spot.

[00:37:24.000]
I'm already logged in because I'm on my own computer. So it was smart enough to log me in.

[00:37:28.000]
And then you can see here, instead of images. Now we have more text. We still have subject categories, and you can see all of the topic pages for each one.

[00:37:38.000]
And then below. We have just like we did in middle school. We have topic standards and educator resources.

[00:37:46.000]
So if I wanted to kick off my search, using topic finder, I could.

[00:37:50.000]
I'm going to show you where else topic finder. So we're not going to use this right now. But I will show you where else it lives.

[00:37:56.000]
Curriculum standards. If you have teachers that are looking for content directly related to a curriculum standard, then they can go into the curriculum standards.

[00:38:07.000]
Search either their State or national.

[00:38:14.000]
I can go directly to. So this is Ngss, which is more science related. But that's okay.

[00:38:20.000]
Let's go by discipline.

[00:38:24.000]
And I'm in a high school product. So I would want to choose high school.

[00:38:28.000]
Let's do Earth and space, sciences.

[00:38:30.000]
It opens up the 1st standard. I'm going to minimize it here.

[00:38:34.000]
So you can see the 3 standards.

[00:38:36.000]
It does open that 1st one up automatically and to the right.

[00:38:41.000]
Is the information that is linked out, related to that standard.

[00:38:47.000]
So I can go to all of that content. And it does pull in a lot of content. So just be.

[00:38:52.000]
Prepared for that. But here's all the content related to that curriculum standard.

[00:38:58.000]
At this point I would definitely want to use my filter. Your results.

[00:39:04.000]
Okay. So that was again.

[00:39:06.000]
Here at the bottom curriculum standards, and then go through that step by step. It's really quite simple to do.

[00:39:13.000]
So let's say, for Gale In context high school. I'm a high school student, and I'm working on a group project on the jazz age. Actually one of my kids actually did this. And it was a very fun unit of study for her.

[00:39:25.000]
So working on the jazz age, and I'm looking for information to share with my group.

[00:39:30.000]
To use for our project and presentation because it's a group project. So I'm going to look 1st for a topic page on the jazz age. Now the simplest way to do that.

[00:39:40.000]
Is to do a basic search.

[00:39:42.000]
Within our Gale In context high school. Almost 100 students are using a basic search or advanced search. They are a little bit more research. Savvy? They've been using other online tools like, maybe shopping on Amazon, right? And so this is very simple for them to do where our middle schoolers are about 50 50% of the time they're using your basic search.

[00:40:05.000]
50% of the time they are using our topic pages.

[00:40:09.000]
So I am going to use our basic search again.

[00:40:14.000]
Jazz, age.

[00:40:16.000]
Again. It takes me to that image and essay overview. Let me open that essay overview.

[00:40:21.000]
Some of our essay overviews, you will see.

[00:40:24.000]
That we may have.

[00:40:26.000]
Some text features like this one has critical thinking questions.

[00:40:30.000]
We might have facts or vocabulary at the middle school level.

[00:40:36.000]
You're going to find maybe some timelines here also, but these are published by Gale. We are a publisher, and we these are, we do our topic overviews here, but also publish a lot of great content that you'll find within the resource.

[00:40:52.000]
So we do have that information available. But not only that we have the ability to switch the reading level so over to the left.

[00:41:00.000]
On our topic overviews. You'll see that ability to go to that lower cell measure, and that's also available in middle school.

[00:41:07.000]
So I can change it to a 990 if I need to.

[00:41:10.000]
And it'll change that text for me.

[00:41:13.000]
To a lower reading level.

[00:41:16.000]
Another feature I want to point out is the explore panel. So a lot of times students will find an article, and I like the topic overviews because they're a great way to kind of kick. Start.

[00:41:26.000]
Your. If if a student is working on a project like we're talking about the jazz age, and I dive into this topic overview, it gives me a good.

[00:41:35.000]
Look at this entire topic, and probably hits on some, or does hit on some areas where I might want to do a little, focus a little bit more on, I know with my daughter's project. They each kind of took a different area within the jazz age, and found great content, like they included fashion, and they included literature. And they. So what was happening in the jazz age. So it wasn't just.

[00:41:58.000]
About the entire concept of, or what what it, what the jazz age was, but also those components so very interesting. And there was a pretty decent size group.

[00:42:09.000]
That they put together, and it turned out to be a fantastic project, and she did utilize a lot of content available within our resources.

[00:42:16.000]
So, finding this 1st one, this topic overview first.st

[00:42:20.000]
Then there's this explore panel. So if this is an article I'm interested in a document I'm interested in, then I can quickly send it to Google, download or print.

[00:42:32.000]
But maybe I want something related to. I can use my explore panel and find related articles, supplemental information similar to the article I'm on.

[00:42:42.000]
This article's longer. So it has article contents, and then you can see here, too, in the explore panels related subjects.

[00:42:50.000]
So I can jump to other subject areas.

[00:42:56.000]
Alright we talked about. Let me make sure we have all of our content here. So we talked about the content types in the last resource.

[00:43:05.000]
Let me go back to that home page.

[00:43:09.000]
And I want to point out featured, content.

[00:43:15.000]
Star featured is featured, meaning that it's hand selected by our subject matter experts or also our content editors. It just depends. But usually it's our subject matter experts, and they will pull out this feature content. And you'll see.

[00:43:30.000]
Both sides of the. Th. This shouldn't say both sides of the issue. When it comes to global issues, you'll see both sides of the issue where this one it's hand selected, so we call it the best of the best.

[00:43:41.000]
This is another great spot for students to get started in.

[00:43:45.000]
Here's a question came through. Can I assign the lower to someone.

[00:43:49.000]
To some students, and the higher to others.

[00:43:51.000]
Yes, Maureen, so what you would want to do? Let me go back.

[00:43:55.000]
To that topic. Page so.

[00:43:58.000]
This topic overview. If I want this 1,330 just at the article level, I can use my get link.

[00:44:06.000]
And share that with students, or pull that into Google classroom. And it will link out exactly where I'm at. It's going to pull that in, if I change it to the 990.

[00:44:16.000]
Then when I use the get link tool.

[00:44:19.000]
It will take my students to the 990.

[00:44:23.000]
Same with Google classroom. So whatever you're at, whatever lexile you're at.

[00:44:29.000]
This is what is going to be linked out. That link will take them back to that spot. So even if it's as I modeled before I filter down to content level threes and fours.

[00:44:40.000]
In the middle school resource.

[00:44:42.000]
Again, the get Link and Google classroom will direct my students to that filtered information. So you can do change it as many different cells as you want. It's a great way to differentiate and then guide your students to that spot.

[00:44:57.000]
I hope that makes sense so, even if I have filtered down.

[00:45:03.000]
Like I did in the middle school resource, right at that.

[00:45:06.000]
At the topic page level, I filtered all that content down.

[00:45:10.000]
So let's do it here, let's filter it down by content. Level.

[00:45:14.000]
Let's see, I don't know how many level threes we have in here, but I know we have level 4.

[00:45:20.000]
Now, when I share the link or pull this into Google classroom anywhere, my students look.

[00:45:26.000]
On this page will be at these content levels.

[00:45:31.000]
And only these content levels. They're not going to have level 5 s. In here.

[00:45:36.000]
So you can do this. As many configurations as you need to meet your students needs. You can do that.

[00:45:41.000]
And share this content with them.

[00:45:44.000]
I hope that makes sense. Thank you for asking that question.

[00:45:49.000]
Okay.

[00:45:51.000]
Let's see, we were talking about the image and essay overview, and the explore panel.

[00:45:57.000]
And then I was also sharing with you the ability to share that content. We talked about the get link tool in Google classroom.

[00:46:05.000]
And our quick send options here.

[00:46:08.000]
Now I want to go into the featured content.

[00:46:13.000]
I think we jumped over that.

[00:46:17.000]
The contextual toolbar and the accessibility tools.

[00:46:20.000]
So in the featured content. I'm going to open that up.

[00:46:24.000]
We only have 3. Again, these are hand selected best of the best.

[00:46:28.000]
Maybe I'm interested in the Harlem Renaissance.

[00:46:32.000]
And I want a model for you, the tools to support accessibility. So you have the ability to translate the text into over 57 languages.

[00:46:42.000]
And I'll I'll use Italian today.

[00:46:45.000]
It translate and gives you a sample. First.st

[00:46:49.000]
And then you have that ability to complete that translation.

[00:46:53.000]
So it does give you a sample. First, st then, the ability to complete a lot. This reasoning is because we have students that are very, sometimes just curious.

[00:47:02.000]
And like to check out different languages. So we want to know for sure if they need to complete it, or if they just are looking for a sample of that.

[00:47:09.000]
You also have the ability to decrease or increase that font size.

[00:47:15.000]
So, meeting the varying needs of your students.

[00:47:18.000]
Display options. This is a feature that'll stick both these, the ability to increase the font size and then also change the display options. This will stick with you throughout your session.

[00:47:29.000]
So if I change the color behind the text.

[00:47:33.000]
I maybe I need open dyslexic.

[00:47:35.000]
Increase the line letter and wording. Maybe tracking is an issue that I have.

[00:47:41.000]
This will stay with me, no matter where I go within this resource. Once I set it up on the 1st document, so all those features are available.

[00:47:49.000]
For those display options to customize it exactly how you need it.

[00:47:55.000]
To go back to the default. I just click back to default settings.

[00:48:00.000]
And click done. Listen! Is here.

[00:48:03.000]
And the listen feature. Hold on!

[00:48:06.000]
There we go. We'll start reading right away.

[00:48:10.000]
The Harlem Renaissance.

[00:48:13.000]
I was there. I had a swell time while it last.

[00:48:17.000]
So you can see it's highlighting the sentence in green and the word in blue. If I need to change that.

[00:48:23.000]
What I can do is open this up.

[00:48:26.000]
And under settings. I have some options where I can change what's being highlighted. The word color, the sentence color, the text color. If I just want it underlined if I don't want it highlighted. Those options are all available here.

[00:48:40.000]
I also can slow the speed down or change the volume, but I can do that.

[00:48:47.000]
Here I have the ability to change that volume.

[00:48:51.000]
The speed.

[00:48:53.000]
Does live in settings.

[00:48:57.000]
I also have the enlarged text option. Let me turn that on for you.

[00:49:02.000]
And click, play.

[00:49:03.000]
Did, but I thought it wouldn't last long.

[00:49:06.000]
It pulls that text now out onto the page where I can increase that font even further.

[00:49:14.000]
For how could a large and enthusiastic number of people.

[00:49:20.000]
I also have the ability to download this as an MP. 3.

[00:49:24.000]
So if I need to listen to it later, I have that feature. There.

[00:49:28.000]
Let me know if there's any questions on the listen feature.

[00:49:32.000]
So those are tools to support accessibility. All here on the top of the document, always at the top of the top of the document.

[00:49:42.000]
Okay, we talked about.

[00:49:45.000]
One more thing I want to share with you our time. We've got 10 min left.

[00:49:49.000]
I'm going to jump into the next resource because I want to cover more content. Please let me know if you have any questions.

[00:49:56.000]
And still I'm building your knowledge of your tool. So we'll talk about the send to download and print in just a moment. I might as well cover here real quick, I think. Oh, this is a really long document. Let me go back out.

[00:50:10.000]
And let's choose.

[00:50:12.000]
Let's go into reference. Maybe I can find a shorter.

[00:50:18.000]
These are all super long documents.

[00:50:21.000]
Let's just do this one.

[00:50:25.000]
The reason why. Got some critical thinking questions. There.

[00:50:29.000]
I wanted to share with you the Source citation.

[00:50:33.000]
Is at the bottom. I can change the format.

[00:50:36.000]
I can just export the source citation if I need to. But when, if I'm sending this document to say Google.

[00:50:43.000]
Google Drive, Onedrive email.

[00:50:45.000]
Download or print. And that's this little paper airplane. My contextual toolbar will stick with me all the way down the page, which is really nice. But let's say I'm sending this document, and I need it an Apa, and then I'm going to send it to my Google drive. I will have the exact citation I need.

[00:51:06.000]
It's at the bottom of your page, your citation tool here.

[00:51:10.000]
If I just need the citation. That's what that tool does. It pulls out just the citation. I also have the ability to change the format.

[00:51:18.000]
Choose where I'd like to export it to, or simply copy and paste it.

[00:51:24.000]
Okay, let's jump into global issues. And I want to share with you some search options that you have available.

[00:51:34.000]
So global issues as you can see, similar. The tools and features are all the same. This one has a browse map, feature.

[00:51:43.000]
Also within the resource.

[00:51:45.000]
I want to share with you. Topic.

[00:51:47.000]
So, topic finder is a visual representation of your search results.

[00:51:53.000]
I can kick off my search using topic finder. I'm going to show you 2 different ways. The 1st one is this way. So let's take a look at. Maybe I'm interested in. I'm a biology teacher, or it's a biology class. And the class is studying global effects of global warming on climate change.

[00:52:09.000]
For a project based learning.

[00:52:11.000]
Activity or unit, I should say. And I want to do a search on global warming and climate change.

[00:52:26.000]
I can put in that term.

[00:52:29.000]
Do my search, and it's going to pull back these tiles. I have 2 options available for visualization.

[00:52:35.000]
I have tiles or wheel.

[00:52:38.000]
It's purely preference.

[00:52:40.000]
And this is looking at the 100 words.

[00:52:44.000]
Of the it's pulling back the.

[00:52:46.000]
It's like, you're considerate. Your top hits like it's your top results. It's the keywords are being shown here, and you can see each tile. There are additional tiles below.

[00:52:56.000]
Some of them we couldn't fit. Oh, Michigan, look at that Michigan here under these 3 dots.

[00:53:02.000]
Because the word is just too big for that little tile. But if let's say I'm going into air pollution, it drills down. It zooms in. I can quickly, with 2 clicks. I'm at 100 different documents on air pollution. But I'm specific. It specifically interested in pollution control for 2024. Now I'm at 12. Different documents could be images. Whatever we have available on.

[00:53:26.000]
This topic of global warming and climate change.

[00:53:30.000]
As it relates to pollution control.

[00:53:35.000]
To reset that I can use the bottom, or just use that roller ball on your mouse. It'll reset it.

[00:53:41.000]
I can go to another area.

[00:53:43.000]
Go into agriculture.

[00:53:45.000]
Air pollution and global warming.

[00:53:50.000]
Okay.

[00:53:52.000]
So topic finders available on the homepage. It's always available under advanced search. Or let me show you where else you will find it.

[00:54:07.000]
I'm just going to go to global warming.

[00:54:09.000]
Sometimes we have topic pages that are global warming and climate change.

[00:54:14.000]
This one has global warming.

[00:54:16.000]
Again, you can see, similar to your other in context, how it's organized here.

[00:54:22.000]
But you're going to find topic up here in your contextual toolbar. Also, if I click into.

[00:54:30.000]
Viewpoints.

[00:54:35.000]
I will see it here below my find. Your results.

[00:54:39.000]
Or filter your results. I have topic. And what happens is, let's say, I've even filtered this down by content levels. We've been talking a lot about that.

[00:54:47.000]
Today the content levels. If I've done that.

[00:54:52.000]
It'll only pull in that filtered into topic. Finder again. Another great way to differentiate instruction.

[00:55:00.000]
So. Topic finder here or here.

[00:55:03.000]
I haven't filtered anything down. It's just going to pull in all of my results from my topic.

[00:55:10.000]
So you have that great tool available.

[00:55:13.000]
So, Erna, is there a way to filter by date, year? Yes, public, either by publication. When you go into publication or under advanced search, you can go to advanced search in topic finder. You're specifically using a topic.

[00:55:27.000]
To filter everything down. So if you want to take it to the next level.

[00:55:32.000]
Of searching, and you want those pre search.

[00:55:35.000]
Go to advanced search. Advanced search is going to give you all those tools that you're looking for.

[00:55:43.000]
And if you want more information on topic, finder.

[00:55:46.000]
There's a nice little blurb here below.

[00:55:48.000]
That talks about a little bit more, and gives you more information.

[00:55:52.000]
Just go into topic, finder.

[00:55:55.000]
Great thanks for asking.

[00:56:00.000]
Okay.

[00:56:02.000]
Let's see. So we talked about topic pages. We've talked about.

[00:56:06.000]
Topic finder as a search option.

[00:56:09.000]
I do. want to talk about highlights and notes. So let me go into.

[00:56:14.000]
4. 3 choices.

[00:56:18.000]
Let's go into Litfinder.

[00:56:23.000]
Here it is!

[00:56:27.000]
Lit finder. I'm not going to cover these basics. We've talked about them. I just want to point out a few things because we're in a literature you're seeing, person search and work search here available. These are always live under advanced search. So any additional search options.

[00:56:43.000]
You'll either see them here on the homepage, like we have topic also, or under advanced search. Now this product is going to look a little different than our in context resources. As our one file resources look a little different, too, because Gale in context resources are designed for our K through 12 students.

[00:57:00.000]
They are going to have those topic pages are going to be connected, and all the ways that I've already mentioned.

[00:57:08.000]
So this lit product is used at the.

[00:57:11.000]
6 through 12th grade, but also at the higher Ed level. So it looks a little different. And doesn't have those topic pages as we do in our that's unique to our in context resources.

[00:57:23.000]
So I wanted to share with you highlights and notes. And let's say I'm doing a poetry study for Ela.

[00:57:29.000]
And I'm looking at.

[00:57:31.000]
Female poets so.

[00:57:33.000]
So let's do one of my favorites. There's so many in here. It's, it's hard. We even have contemporary. So this is from historical to contemporary.

[00:57:41.000]
Maya Angelou is who we're going to use today.

[00:57:45.000]
Yeah.

[00:57:47.000]
I was going to go to.

[00:57:49.000]
8 on the moon. But, my angel, it takes you directly to the primary sources and literary works. Remember, this is a great resource for those full text poems, short stories, novels, speeches, inaugural speeches. You'll also find the citations here, too. So if you just want full text documents.

[00:58:08.000]
Then select full text documents on the right hand side, but we do have the citations. As I said, this is a resource that is used at all levels of use with our schools, but also in our public libraries, who like to have those citations available, and also at the higher Ed level, so that you can find that content within your library. Now, I wanted to share with you.

[00:58:33.000]
When you're using highlights and notes, and this is a 1 of her actual cause. We were in the primary. Sorry. Let me go back to the results here when I'm in primary sources, in literary works.

[00:58:44.000]
I'm going to find the actual poems by that author. If I'm interested in an overview or the biography, let's do that. Let's go into biographies.

[00:58:54.000]
Of my my Angelou. I will find that information under biographies, but under those primary sources and literary works, that's where I'm going to find.

[00:59:03.000]
Maya Angelou's actual poems will be there, but then I'll also find works from other folks, too, that are that are either written about Maya Angelou, so you might find some of that information there. You'll find a lot of that in the overviews, too.

[00:59:17.000]
Highlights and notes if I wanted to highlight a chunk of text like I'm interested in where she was born.

[00:59:25.000]
I can click and drag, select a color.

[00:59:29.000]
And this is

[00:59:36.000]
I can save that.

[00:59:39.000]
Maybe I'm interested in what.

[00:59:41.000]
Kind of little bit of timeline.

[00:59:46.000]
When she moved to Brooklyn.

[01:00:00.000]
Okay, you get the idea.

[01:00:02.000]
What you can do, and what a best practice is. If I have marked up a document is, if I, to save the entire document, send the entire document to Google onedrive email or print.

[01:00:15.000]
Because you want to save what you've marked up, and any notes you've taken.

[01:00:19.000]
If I send this to my Google drive.

[01:00:23.000]
It'll land in a folder.

[01:00:27.000]
I'm quickly doing this here.

[01:00:29.000]
It'll land in a folder in my Google drive.

[01:00:35.000]
Titled, and I'm is this my new one?

[01:00:38.000]
I had to.

[01:00:40.000]
Nope, I want to be in this one.

[01:00:43.000]
There we go. So here's my Maya Angelou document, but it's also it lives in this Litfinder folder. So to land in this folder. These are just my recent.

[01:00:53.000]
If I open my litfinder folder.

[01:00:56.000]
Here's my document. It turns it into a Google Doc.

[01:01:00.000]
The text has been highlighted.

[01:01:02.000]
And then below the citation. I also have both passages and any notes I've taken.

[01:01:09.000]
What also happens.

[01:01:11.000]
Go back.

[01:01:13.000]
Is my highlights and Notes section is being built out.

[01:01:16.000]
Highlights and notes.

[01:01:19.000]
View all highlights and notes. I can just send these digital notes to those same places.

[01:01:25.000]
I can download. I can print.

[01:01:27.000]
If I'm in multiple documents marking them up again. Best practice. Send the entire document. But I can come in here and just grab what I like to call digital notes, and my bibliographies being built out at the same time.

[01:01:41.000]
So I have my work ready to go, so that citation tool is there too.

[01:01:46.000]
Alright. Let me know if there's any questions. I do need to go back to our Powerpoint and wrap our session here.

[01:01:55.000]
For support. You can go to the link I shared with you at the beginning of today's session and find all of your information that you need for your Washington State Library resources, that you have your gale resources, access information, great information in the training center, including escape rooms. And we have. Here's 1 on Romeo and Juliet. We have student activities.

[01:02:18.000]
Claim evidence and reasoning. I just pulled out a few. We also have great marketing materials available.

[01:02:24.000]
Templates for blogs and emails, and also social media posts ready to go for you. So we have all those great materials available on your Gale support site.

[01:02:34.000]
Again. My name is Tammi Burke. I'm a senior trainer at Gale, and I thank you all for your time today, your one on one support and all things Gale your Gale customer success managers. Here's tech support. If you'd like to take a screenshot of this.

[01:02:47.000]
I will also be sharing with you when you leave. If you could click, continue, and fill out the survey, we greatly appreciate your feedback.

[01:02:56.000]
If you'd like to use your phone, here's a QR code over to the right hand side, feel free to scan it and give us that feedback I do will share that. A lot of our States ask for that information. It's completely anonymous.

[01:03:07.000]
So you can give us your feedback on the session, or if you'd like to see training on something else in the future, I also share that information, and we are planning ahead. So let us know what you're thinking, where you could use some more support.

[01:03:20.000]
But that wraps our session today. Thank you so much for your time. I will stay on if there's any additional questions. But thank you, and have a great rest of your day. Everyone.
