I am a scientist who also is an educator. I have so happily combined the two professions as I beleive that they are not always practiced mutually. I have been in research/education for 35 years. I am pursuing my doctorate in educational leadership and have been especially focused on the incorporation and implementation processes of using the computer as one of the teaching and learning strategies in the 21st century.
my training has been as a molecular biologist who loves to teach others. I have not only earned my MS in my field but also my graduate degree in education MAEED. I look forward to sharing and listening/reading to my colleagues in the field.
(My website is in theprocess of being updated by me; I am a little slow about it).
I am teaching at DePaul Catholic High School and am an adjunct at FDU
Great resource for science cases studies that involve a variety of topics
Since you are particularly interested in the intersection of science education and technology, can I point you to a site that has been developed at the Lawrence Hall of Science that seeks to bring photo sharing to the science classroom www.fossweb.com/planetfoss.
Hi Mary, what a wonderful decision. I made the same one 2 years ago and just started blogging myself, then it led to the class blog and as confidence grew students came on board with individual blogs.
With your interest in 21st Century Technology, 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.
