For Educators

I Teach

Computer UserI teach so I understand the intense demands of today's schools and classrooms.  Teaching is my passion.  Making learning meaningful, challenging, and relevant are my goals.

Using Technology Well

Using technology well helps me meet my teaching goals. I view technology as a necessary component to good classroom teaching.  It is not an "add on" or or a "special" to be delivered once or twice a week.  With every lesson plan, I think through how technology can support critical thinking, discussion, and depth.
