Position:
Instructional Technologist
Needs:
digital cameras digital video cameras - like the Flip Video projectors webcams interactivetools like smartboard, airliner, schoolpad interactiveresponse systems like eInstruction or Senteo mini-laptopsor sturdy portable computing devices for students
My Philosophy:
Our students are our future. They need to be prepared to live and work in a world we can only imagine now with the advances made in technology each day. In rural areas especially, it is important that students be exposed to the possibilities that lay waiting for their future. Many of these students only imagine careers they see each day like factory worker, restaurant worker, teacher, doctor, nurse, lawyer, or law enforcement. It is important to connect them to people and resources beyond our local community so they can see what their world truly has to offer.
