I have been a teacher for more than 20 years. During this time, I taught math and computers at the junior high level and computers at the elementary level. I also worked as a mentor teacher and technology coordinator where I trained teachers on using technology in their classrooms. I have started a page on Facebook where I or anyone can add tips for integrating curriculum and technology. Search for "Technology for Teachers" and click the "Like" button to get tips.
