HI Scott


Welcome to Classroom 2.0 I did the career switch too about ten years ago. I found it was hard, but well worth it....even with a pay cut. If you were in the corporate world, you may find that things tend to move at a slightly different pace in education. Classroom 2.0 is a great place to find others who are ready to help pick up the pace a little bit.

Glad to have you here.

Hi all. I am a social studies teacher in a rural school of Dorchester, NE. I enjoy using technology in my room as much as possible. I have found some valuable resources with videos.

Hello Natalie, I also teach in Victoria, Australia, so it is good to see more Aussies making the most of this wonderful classroom.

Hi all,

Didn't do this back when I joined so thought I should get caught up. I was a classroom teacher for 23 years . . . in both "brick & mortar" and online classrooms . . . from 5th grade through grad school courses. I love learning and the process of "architectureing" learning environments.

Currently, I am working on a supplemental degree with sights on getting involved in the arena of educational policy.

- Greg

I'm Jason Goodreau from Springfield, Illinois. Thanks for letting me share this journey with you all. I'm the Director of Technology and Tech Curriculum as well as a teacher for Sacred Heart - Griffin High School in Springfield. Prior to that I served as the DoT for the Pleasant Plains School District - a rural unit district in central Illinois. I began my career in the St. Louis and St. Louis metro area as a tech manager and teacher for various schools which gave me the opportunity to learn about the mechanizations of schools in an urban setting.

I feel blessed to be able to network with professionals such as you! I am here to learn from the vast pool of knowledge, expertise, and experience here. I also want to share whatever I can to make things a little better for you if possible.

Thanks all!
