Thank you for stopping by! The resources I create are designed to actively engage students learning computer applications, technology, STEM and beyond. The lessons and activities include Google Apps, Microsoft Office apps, computer and technology basics, intermediate and advanced, STEM, keyboarding and escape rooms. Each lesson/activity is complete and ready to assign to your students. While some lessons are editable, the lesson itself is ready to go with little to no prep by the teacher. I have been teaching Computer Education and Technology to grades K-8 and higher education for over 20 years. My experience also includes creating computer training manuals for faculty and staff at a community college.

Teaching style
Computer and technology hands on, interactive, engaging lessons while incorporating activities that interest each student's grade level. I also try to incorporate as much "Real Life" lessons as much as possible.
My students must approve the lessons that I put on TPT. Lessons have been "proven" by my students by keeping students engaged, interested, and overall enjoying the lessons - thus the name "Proven Computer Lessons"
TPT is the largest marketplace for PreK-12 resources, powered by a community of educators.
