I have taught science since 1999 and have been a district technology leader since 2002. I am also a Google for Education Certified Trainer and an Apple Certified Teacher. My interest in technology started with my MS in Instructional Technology from NYIT where I learned ways to effectively teach technology integration. I always loved integrating technology in my class starting with using probes for science experiments in the early years to 1:1 chromebooks in the last few years. Recently, I have found a passion for virtual and augmented reality now that mobile devices have become powerful and many students carry them daily. I love VR and AR use with students because it takes them on journeys that are not normally possible especially within a 42 minute class period. As I delve deeper into a SAMR model of teaching, I recently began focusing on creation tools instead of simply consumption.
