 * Grade Level/Discipline:** High School (Grades 10-12)/Business & Technology Education


 * Few Facts about :**


 * 1) I have a MS from Wilkes University in Classroom Technology and a MS from Bloomsburg University in Instructional Technology.
 * 2) I hated teaching when I first started. Those first three years were tough. Now I can't imagine doing anything but teaching. I love my job.
 * 3) I moved into the boonies three years ago and am finally convinced that I need a four wheel drive vehicle after a winter wonder land of snow. After some research, I'm really excited about the Ford Escape 2012 redesign.
 * 4) I love reality tv shows like Survivor, Celebrity Apprentice and the Amazing Race (and am quite embarrassed by it).


 * What I'd like to learn or get out of this course:**

I have been given the task to re-write a course that has been outdated in my district. My supervisors are giving much pressure to make it appeal to today's generation. (It's a Microsoft Office Suite course that students are no longer taking due to lack of interest.) I'm hoping that this course would help give ideas to incorporate in the course I'm revising.


 * My favorite game(s):** Just Dance 2 (Wii) - good exercise when trapped in-side this winter
