Hello, my name is Jessica. I teach high school Spanish in NJ. I love how web 2.0 can help my students improve their communication skills in the target language. I am always looking for new collaborative projects and ways to help my students improve.
I look forward to sharing ideas and learning with all of you.
Hi everyone,

I am a Year 8 teacher in New Zealand who has an interest in utilising web 2.0 in the class room. I am interested in chatting with people who can tell me how they have fared with various applications, in particular looking at how the use of such applications has impacted on your teaching practice and the learning of your students. Exciting to see so many people here interested in the pretty much the same thing! Very cool.
I am a fourth grade teacher in Beaufort, South Carolina. I teach math, science and writing (my passion is science and writing and I am getting up to speed on the math front). I am new to Web 2.0 but am moving at light speed (for me). I am a career change (39 years old) and this is my second year in the classroom (last year 6th grade science). My students are blogging and I would love to collaborate with other fourth grade classes. I have already done one collaboration and it was so good I am looking for more opportunites. If you have anything going on in your classroom/blog/skype/wiziq/wiki that you would like us to participate in please let me know. I listed my classroom websites and blog sites below (I use science notebooks and started blogging about the process if anyone is interested).

My name is Nathan and I am a high school social studies teacher in Iowa. I have joined Classroom 2.0 to learn about the latest technology trends in the classroom and apply them to my classroom. I also have a passion for working with curriculum and am currently looking for ways to incorporate technology into the courses offered in my district. I am fortunate enough to be a part of a large school district that is building a new high school and hopefully will be equipped with all the latest technological tools for education. I look forward to learning more about how other teachers around the world incorporate technology into their classroom.
Hi,

My name is Cheryl Morin. I am a Middle Year's teacher working in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. I am also working on a Community Based Action Research Project for a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I am interested in learning how and if values play a role in the use of technology to improve teacher effectiveness and student learning. I think I am a "digital immigrant" if one is familiar with Marc Prensky's articles, sort of struggling way behind the youngsters of today in the digital world but eager to catch up!

I am looking forward to using this site and learning from this global class.
HI, all - My name is Carol Arcomano and I'm a life-long learner of 21st century and beyond. I teach at my alma mater (Long Branch, NJ) for 12+ years and have another 12+ to go. I'm currently getting my masters in INstructional Technology at UNK. THis is what got me started on this whole 21st century stuff. My subjects are Computer Applications (Microsoft) and Cisco Networking.
Hello :) I am a math instructor at Pierce College (a community college) near Tacoma, WA. In my spare time, I developed an open-source math-focused course management and assessment tool, IMathAS. As part of a grant project supporting this, I've been working with high school instructors on using this technology in the classroom, and to develop assessments based on our College Readiness Standards (see here, for example). One of those instructors told me about this site, so thought I'd come check it out.
I am a teacher of middle school science. I have been frustrated by the limitations of the classical classroom environment and have recently been exposed to newer technology tools. I am excited about making this work with my students. I have taught for 20 years and always tried new things. I am originally from New York but have lived and taught in several areas around the U.S, I am married and have grown children. In my spare time I do lots of research, painting, and traveling with my husband and dogs.
Hi, I'm Pamela a 7th and 8th grade Keyboarding, Computer LIteracy and Technology teacher. Next year I will be teaching a new class that I am currently designing. I would like to teach digital photography, web design, etc on an introductory level. I am having difficulty creating a sequence. I think that I want everything that is done in the class to work toward the completed web design. Does anyone have ideas?
Hello Everyone! I am a Middle School administrator in Huntington Beach California.
Hi everyone. I'm Robyn Clarke from Silverdale, NSW Australia. I am a primary assistant principal and Stage 3 Literacy support teacher. I am passionate about embedding technology into everything I do in the classroom and especially enjoy collaborative projects with other schools that encourage my students to develop social responsibility.
Hey everybody, I'm Steve Katz. I am a southern California native in my 18th year teaching, number 8 in Costa Rica. I have taught all core subjects and many different electives, but have mostly taught social studies & dabbled in tech classes. I really enjoy having my students create video projects that go along with the curriculum, and I used my experience doing this (and my handouts) to write a book for teachers who want to integrate video projects into their classes (http://teachwithvideo.com). I have also presented at a few conferences, and was recently made the Director of Educational Technology at my school. I'm glad to finally be part of this community.
