Collections By Destiny
Shared by Shannon McClintock Miller @shannonmmiller
District Teacher Librarian and Innovation Director at Van Meter School
App Description: Collect, Create, Deliver and Share with Collections by Destiny.
*Collect and share free or purchased resources you have within the library collection.
*Collections can include web pages, images, eBooks, audio books, Google Docs, digital tools
and apps, student created work and more.
*With Collections, teachers and librarians can collaborate to pair content to instruction.
Uses as a Future Ready Librarian:
As Future Ready Librarians, we can use Collections by Destiny as a tool for curation, creating and collaboration, and by smashing it up within other tools such as Symbaloo, Wakelet, Google Classroom, Seesaw and more.
25 Collections for Digital Learners
Collection Set of Special Yearly Events
Collection of Resources for Students, Families & Schools During COVID
The 10 Future Ready Librarian Wedge Collections Set
Ideas for using with students:
Students can collect and curate resources for projects, tasks, portfolios, etc…
My students love using Collections as a place to collect and organize eBooks and
audio books they are reading or what we are reading together. During remote learning,
students loved the ones we put together around certain themes and events like the
Virtual Field Trip Collection they could access at home or school.
