Blogging about Google Apps

Although there are many formatting glitches that often deter me from using Google Apps, I am confident that they can be used to make me a more efficient educator.

Leading by example...

Why Twitter should be a part of your PLN...

If somebody asked me about the last 6 months of my life, I would respond

challenging, but yet at the same time I can say with little hesitation

that I have grown more as an educator in the last 6 months than in any

other time period in my life.



The world in which we live is changing faster than anyone could ever
