About the store
I am the former technology coordinator for a private school in Naperville, Illinois. Under my direction, the school integrated technology throughout the curriculum. We accomplished this by utilizing “real world” software that allowed the students to use their creative skills to develop solutions. In addition, they utilized multimedia, the Internet, and other software to create online projects and presentations.
In addition to this experience, I have created and conducted teacher in-services and workshops on a variety of technology topics, including how to incorporate Reading & Writing Activities/Resources in a 1:1 Environment, interactive whiteboard techniques, Web 2.0 tools, differentiated learning with technology, and other relevant topics.
I am also an faculty member for the University of Phoenix online campus, instructing graduate student educators in educational technology methods.

Technology Integration Explained
Technology integration can be both exciting and overwhelming, and for many educators it is the latter. However with the right resources, tools, and support, both the curriculum and student learning experience will be fortified with real time information, inquiry- and project-based learning, problem solving, and address multiple learning styles. Many schools are implementing the 1:1 computing model and this accelerates the infusion of tools that fortify student learning and the curriculum.
