I began my teaching in a rural 5th grade classroom and had my first challenge bringing together two divergent cultural groups around the thematic study of Yosemite. Teaching in the huge urban city of Sao Paulo, Brazil to teach, working with the Technology Department as a DITS to integrate technology, receiving my Masters Degree and working online at Walden University, couldn’t come close to the challenges I have daily trying to help teachers integrate technology in order to transform teaching and learning in their classrooms.

It is my hope that the technology integrated strategies shown below based upon Marzano’s Classroom Instruction that Works will present some interesting challenges for students to use technology to support and maintain their learning.
