OPAC Crayon Shaped iPad Kiosks and Proactive Little Learners
Testimonial by Stephanie Smith – Elementary School Librarian
“We are in a world where we are teaching our children to be independent, information literate, proactive learners. For this reason, we felt that the Krayon Kiosks would be a great fit for our Library at the Glenwood Landing Elementary School in Glenwood Landing, New York.
Students utilize the Krayon Kiosks daily to make their book circulation time more efficient and effective. The innovative tool motivates students to search for books independently and, therefore, molds them into self-sufficient library users. The students that were once hesitant and intimidated by the desktop computers are now racing to the Krayon Kiosk to locate their books through the OPAC at the Krayon Kiosk. What a difference!
Stephanie Smith – With the Glenwood North Shore Schools Brand New Krayon Kiosk
Perfect for young minds eager to learn and explore
In addition to the OPAC stations, the Krayon Kiosks are used as research tools with the iPads. At Glenwood Landing Elementary School, students are proficient in the use of databases that are accessible through the district and public library. While in the Library for research, students utilize the Krayon Kiosks and iPads to navigate their way through the databases to uncover their information.” – read more….

I discovered ESGI while reading posts about great on-line assessments for kindergartners via the Facebook page Kindergarten Teachers Unite. I went to our supervisor for our county to try to get the board to purchase it for all K teachers in our county. They had already maxed out the budget for technology, so they turned me down. I went to my principal and demonstrated it using the free 60-day trial and he agreed to purchase it for our 4 kindergarten classrooms. As the 2nd report card period has arrived, I find that this assessment is a greater tool than I ever imagined. I do not EVER want to go back to our old paper/pencil assessment booklets. I can work with students on their unknown skills using the bar graph with ease, print student cards for individual practice, and student results for parents . After 12 years of teaching kindergarten, ESGI has helped me become a better, more efficient kindergarten teacher! I LOVE IT!!!
I do not have any iPads in my classroom. My kindergartners and I would be overwhelmed with joy to win this iPad Krayon Kiosk!
