Hi
I'm Chrissy, a classroom teacher from Napier, New Zealand. I currently teach 11-12year olds (Year 7) at an Intermediate school. Im lucky enough to have a "digital" classroom in which I have lots of equipment to integrate IT into our everyday curriculum subjects.

Welcome to the site, Chrissy.

Hi. I'm a new Classroom Computer Teacher for 10 schools in our school board. I travel from school to school to work with teachers and administrators to achieve technology integration goals of all kinds. I'm called on to do demonstrations of software and hardware of all kinds. Lately, everyone wants to know about Moodle and Smartboards.
I often deliver professional development for Jewish day schools in Toronto. My years teaching in those schools provided me with a passion for integrating technology into the learning of Jewish Studies.
I live in Toronto. My work is north of the city in the York Region Board of Education.

Hello. I'm from the Comox Valley in British Columbia, Canada. I have worked as a classroom teacher at every level from K to 12, but I'm now an Assistive Technology consultant in 5 school districts on the northern half of Vancouver Island. I have the privilege of supporting students who require technology to access the curriculum, especially children with physical challenges and visual impairment, as well as those with ASD diagnoses.
It has been interesting to observe that much of the technology, and many of the applications used by students with special needs, benefit virtually all learners. I have become increasingly keen to see more classroom teachers take advantage of the rapidly growing range of opportunities available to support the digital learners in our classrooms. Since so many of the very best apps are free, we have no excuse for not using the tools that are available.

Hi I am Frances Bell from the University of Salford, UK. I teach and research into information systems. I have a particular interest in the use of ICTs for learning but not surprisingly, I take an information systems slant on the domain (which roughly roughly translated means things are not always as new as they seem). I worked on a project that created CABWEB where student can collaborate online guided by their tutors who have already collaborated online to organise the student activities and generally chat with each other. My current project is a social networking project for Women who work in IT. I am not posting the url till we are ready to launch but that's not too long away.

Hey everyone!
I'm Jamey Osborne, the Director of Instructional Technology at La Porte ISD, on the shores of Galveston Bay, right outside Houston, TX. I'm an Apple Distinguished Educator and an Adobe Education Leader and I'm glad to be here, exploring the opportunities that await. I'm a big fan of the power of 2.0 and where social networks and games are going....

I grew up in Hawaii. Went to college in California. And have been an educator in Texas for 30+ years.
I am a real live DeadHeadHippiesaurus, about to be a 1st time granddaddy. Unlike many who make the claim, I really was there. Chicago in 1968, and San Francisco at the height of its Hairy-Flower-Power-Dancing-In-The-Streets-Groovin'-at-Bill-Graham's-Winterland-Fillmore-Hey-Day.
I'm old, but surviving by staying young by thinking young. I can't retire because I love my students and I'm having too much fun figuring out just where all this new technology is taking us.
Talk about A Long Strange Trip!

Hiya - my name is Drew Buddie. I am a Scot living and teaching in England and I am a proud evangelist of all things Web 2.0 and the way they can be used within education. But my particular areas of specialism are the use of Moodle and the ways in which wikis and froiums can be used creatively within schools.

Hi All,
I'm Deb Resch and I currently work as a computer education facilitator in central New Jersey middle school. I love technology; however, it is SO time/life consuming. It is easy to get so wrapped up in new and exciting technology. It's nice to have a place to share and get feedback!
