Hi there,
I teach BTEC National Diploma units, in Computer Animation, Digital Graphics, IT Technical Support, Information Systems and Advanced Spreadsheets. I use Facebook, podcasts, Huddle, Google Notebooks etc with my students and I'm investigating Twitter at the moment too. I love using the latest technology and encourage my students to explore with a positive attitude the new technologies available,

Hi all,

After teaching primary students for over 20 years I have decided to pursue more post graduate studies in education.
I am currently enrolled at UTS (University of Technology Sydney) and undertaking a Masters of Arts in E-learning degree.
Our Autumn semester has just commenced and I will keep you all up to date with many interesting e-learning developments that are presented in our lectures and workshops. I hope to also gain a wealth of knowledge from this wonderful e-learning community I have just joined up with.
Ariane

I am a Technology Integration Specialist for La Crescent-Hokah School District in Southeast Minnesota but live in Wisconsin. We live in a very beautiful part of the state. Currently, I am finishing a Masters of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on Educational Technology at Marian University in Fond du lac, WI. I am very excited about all the new technologies I am learning and sharing with my teachers in my district.

I'm a high school history teacher at the Ethical Culture Fieldston School, a progressive independent school in NYC. I've written ten books, most recently the newly published Essaying the Past: How to Read, Write and Think about History (Wiley-Blackwell). My blog, "American History Now,"explores the role of U.S. history in everyday life. One running feature is "The Felix Chronicles," lightly fictionalized vignettes of classroom life. Be glad to know if anyone else is working in a similar vein. Thanks.

Hi I'm looking to create a personal learning network. I recently graduated from the Johns Hopkins Graduate Program in School Administration and Supervision in partnership with ISTE. It was a great program!

Hi everyone. I teach video production, instructional technology and media literacy in a public high school in western MA. I also do some freelance work with video production/filmmaking and teaching video production/technology skills. I'm a father of two and I'm finally working on my Master's Degree (in Education with a specialty in Technology and Media/Video Production). I'm interested in networking and collaborating with others on work involving video production, media production and web 2.0/instructional technology.

Hello folks. I am a special education teacher at Monsignor Uyen School in Chatham, Ontario, Canada. I work with students from JK to Grade 8. I love the variety my day holds. I am also very much involved with the School Peace Garden Movement In June, 2000, I was honoured by being named TV Ontario's Teacher of the Year. I love technology and see it as a way to level the playing field for my special students.
