Hi,

My name is Jason. You'll find me all over Upstate NY from one day to another working for Teq Inc. I am an Instructional Technology Specialist providing professional development to teachers on a wide variety of instructional technology. My background is mostly middle school science with a few years of elementary teaching thrown in. I grew up near Rochester, NY and now live about half way between there and Syracuse. One of my favorite new instructional tools are ones that allow students to create a video or iBook, showing-off what they learned.

Best,

Jason

Hi, my name is Kate Miller and I'm a fourth grade teacher in Maryland. I use SMART Technology in my classroom and am currently in a graduate program through Loyola University in Instructional Technology. I'm especially interested in reading and technology- like the impact of e-readers and digital textbooks. I hope to become a media specialist/school librarian some day.
