- About Me:
- I enjoy working with all of the staff in Modesto City Schools, CA as the Supervisor of Instructional Technology. This position allows me the opportunity to be exposed to many types of emerging technologies and to evaluate their usefulness in the classroom. I try to keep up with all of the technologies (blogging, wikis, podcasts, virtual worlds, digital storytelling, etc.) that are part of our students’ lives, including active participation in the MMORPG World of Warcraft as a Guild Master for over 2 years.
