Southern Wesleyan University
Class Information:
Room Number: Room 122
Students per Class: 150+
Class Description:
I teach college students informational technology. I also teach graduate students how to use informational technology in the classroom setting by integrating technology into the classroom instruction so that the technology is transparent. In other words, the technology is so seamless that it just as natural to use it as to take the roll every day. I truly love teaching these students because they are so thirsty for knowledge to engage their young charges.
Position:
Assistant Professor
Needs:
Our students could use the digital camera lab as well well as the I-Pod lab in my informational technology courses. This would allow the students to benefit from hands-on applications of the labs so they could use these ideas no matter what subjects or grade levels that they are teaching.
Personal Information:

In 1994, I received my Doctor of Education degree in Administration and Curriculum from Nova Southeastern University.

Favorite Books:

Favorite Quotes:
Together all things are possible.
Interests:
I am interested in the digital divide and ways to gap this divide between the haves and the have nots in technology.
Employment History:
I have worked at all grade levels from Pre-K to post secondary education. I have worked in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, and Florida in various educational capacities from the classroom to administration and also in the media center and informational technology.
Why Do I Teach?:
I am officially retired from public education in June 2007. However, as Dylan Thomas says, "I am not ready to go gentle into that good night." I still have something to contribute to education so that is why I am teaching at the college level now. I delight in showing teachers how to excite and engage their students in learning in the classroom.
