About Me
------

TICT Tech Support in the Osseo School District. I'm currently working with Moodle this summer. I'm also playing and coaching soccer.

I graduated from college in 2007 with a Computer Information Systems degree. I never thought I would be working in a school district but I love it! I'm a computer geek and love technology but I also love sports and working out, reading, music and just relaxing : )

    Hello Melissa and welcome here. I love all your comments in your introduction as they are my sentiments as well. However, once staff see the wonderful benefits of web2.0, they gradually start to come on board as well.

    That is so true about the colleagues teaching you and then you get to a stage where the students are actually teaching you as well.

    Hi Melissa!

    Happy New Year! I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from Minnesota!

    You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!
