I've worked in the NB public education system for over 20 years as a teacher, an evaluation expert, a curriculum developer and assistant director. Since 2001, I'm coordinating the development and delivery of online courses for francophone High schools. Am passionate about 21st century learning and effective IT integration and I value teamwork with colleagues and teachers in the field and significant strategic partnerships with other e-learning jurisdictions across Canada and abroad. Married for 28 years, father of 3, I enjoy golf, reading, hockey and relaxing at the beach (which NB is quite notorious for).
Hello Jacques and welcome here. I have also joined a lot of ning groups but this is the one I keep returning to all the time as it has a large membership and the discussions and forums keep on coming and are really pertinent to what I want to learn and use in my classroom.
Thank you for replying so promptly and I just love your comments about the connectedness, exchange and sharing as our education will become so much richer by it. I am suffering from jet lag as we just flew back home from London via a stopover in Hong Kong and trying to catch up with everything. I am passionate about the emerging technologies as well and their effective integration into the curriculum. As it is fun, we very often forget that wonderful learning that is taking place naturally.
Hi Jacques! Welcome to classroom 2.0! I am a new member as well. I think it is great that you are passionate about learning and technology. This is a nice place to connect and share our experiences with others of a shared interest. See you around!
