I am a middle school gifted education specialist living in the big sky country. I am a lifelong learner and lover of emerging technologies. I have a beautiful wife and two wonderful sons. I think the applications found in environments like Blogs, Wikispaces, Social Networks and read/write web tools have changed the way we need to teach our students. We need to catch up to many of our students because they are leaps and bounds ahead of us with regards to technology. I joined classroom2.0 because I want to be a better teacher; but I believe it will also help me become a better learner. I love to LEARN…It is like very good chocolate to me.
I am from Ghana and I'm just here to learn, contribute as well as link up with like-minded people who will be willing to share their experiences as well as help in spreading the concept of distance learning and adult education to Africa, which lags behind as far as education is concerned. hope to find a friend in you.
am not a teacher myself. i just happen to have parents who were teachers but i just happen to know the benefits of distance education so i am trying to link up with people who are willing to donate new or used computers and have them shipped here and we in turn donate them to schools here. I am into television and film directing and i have been able to develop an educative television program which is broadcast throughout the country. We have successfully finished with our first two seasons and we are currently looking for sponsors to start showing our third season. i will be grateful if you can team up with some colleagues of your and see if you can get some computers down here. You and your colleagues could also adopt a school here and collaborate with them. My connecting speed is just 128 kbps Thanks.
