About

I am both a graduate student and a full-time technology director in a K-12 school district.  I am passionate both about technology and learning.

I am especially interested in parent engagement (particularly as it relates to technology use), safety and security of new technologies for children, women and technology, and helping teachers and IT staff work together for the benefit of students.

Thank you for reading my blog.  I welcome your feedback and comments as I continue my learning journey.  I hope I will add something meaningful to the edublogosphere!

    Good Evening – I’ve been spending time on your blog and just wanted to drop you a note of appreciation for putting some of your thoughts and professional work on your blog. I’m a school board member from South Dakota and part of my job requires providing vision for our k-12 district of 5000 students. Reading your material helps me with that process I pput a link to your blog on my school board blog (www.school-of-thought.net)

    After reading your blog, I noticed that you cover all-things education-related, so I wanted to reach out on behalf of my client, the Ad Council to let you know of a campaign they have developed called BoostUp (boostup.org) that aims to encourage students at risk of dropping out to stay in school. Basically this site allows you to give one of the 11 kids in the campaign (or a kid that you know) encouragement (aka giving a “boost”).

    Right now we are trying to get as many “Boosts” to these and other kids by role models like you. If you’re interested in blogging about this, I have a video and more information on this site (http://pitch.pe/1820) to help spread the message to a larger audience (we have badges and content to steal). I hope you’ll find these stories and videos as touching as I did.

    At the very least, we would greatly appreciate if you could take a few seconds to give a kid a boost. It may seem like something small, but it really goes a long way.

    Thanks!

    Greetings…
    I came here when doing a little webtroll on the 7 things meme. Your header image on the front page made me immediately think you might appreciate this post a did a while back: http://nashworld.edublogs.org/2008/12/24/my-daughters-favorite-gift/

    Then… a quick survey of posts made me subscribe for later. I’ll be back… keep up the good work!
