Teaching style
I believe that there are no boxes or barriers when it comes to learning, classrooms, subject areas or otherwise. My favourite tech tools are the ones that get you away from the screen and into the environment. STEM education can be accessible for all ages, whether you've integrated it into your classroom or have avoided it like the plague. My goal is to create valuable resources and student activities that integrate technology in a way that extends into a broad range of interests and connects students to their communities and natural environments.
