About Me
I work for the Smoky Hill Education Service Center in Salina, Kansas, which supports seventy-some school districts in north-central and north-western Kansas. I'm mostly just a geek who loves working with students and teachers! I work in area schools and also provide workshops and training sessions on using all the technology tools we can find to improve learning for teachers and students.
The most important part of my day is to learn something new, and I'm so intrigued by the web 2.0 applications I've tried. I've started working with teachers to implement as many of them as I can get them to try! It's an easy sell - a 'try it you'll like it!' phenomenon. What is there NOT to like about web 2.0?

    Hi Linda. I was wondering if you have students or educator friends who would be interested in participating in a nationwide SAT Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

    Hi Linda,
    I'm doing some research regarding blogging platforms for teachers in our district. I read in a discussion forum from 2007 that your teachers use Class Blogmeister. Are they still liking it? Any insight you can provide would be much appreciated. Thanks! Kimberly

    Hi Linda,

    With your work in Integrated Technology for your Education Center, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording conducted by Nellie Deutsch on Technology Integration.
