[quote=Anonymous]The OP seemed to suggest the trade off is between library and foreign language. I can’t imagine a language curriculum that could teach anything meaningful in a 30-45 min block once a week. Meanwhile, library lets my kids explore their very niche nonfiction favorite subjects in ways that would be impossible in a classroom library. Librarians are also often the ones teaching digital citizenship, copyright/fair use, and will likely be on the front lines of the AI fight (what constitutes cheating in a ChatGPT world? How do you use tools appropriately while also building writing and critical thinking? How can we make students critical questioners of what they see online in an era of deep fakes?). All of that is far more valuable to me than the marginal benefit a child would get from 1/wk language class [/quote]
