I love what I do and I do what I love. I'm extremely interested in how technology can help provide more equitable access to education and opportunities within the classroom. I am particularly interested in how simple technologies can help English Language Learners (or what I call ASSL - American School System Learners) participate more fully in all aspects of education.
I often find that my focus is different than most of the educational technology field in that I am not looking for a distance learning tool or a tool that hopes to educate students by itself. I am interested in technology as a tool within the classroom that can both provide equal access to participation and help ease the burden on classroom facilitators. If you click on the Masters Project link you can see the current project that I am working on.
I received my M.A. at Teachers College Columbia University in Instructional Design and Technology. I am currently the technology coordinator at NYC Lab School located in Manhattan.
I have worked in many different areas including:
- Teacher K-6 classrooms [English]
- Teacher 1-10 classrooms [Spanish]
- Teacher training (technology integration)
- Website Design (CSS, HTML, Javascript, JSP)
- PC repair
- Database management (PHP with MySQL)
- Video Production
