About me

Industry Education
Location United States
Introduction I'm a teacher from Ontario who is crazy about technology. Presently I call the US home. This blog is to provide a bit of context and purpose to technology in the classroom, our world, and the world that children are to inherit. Every month I'll have a new post complete with facts, history, puzzles, activities, lesson ideas, and resources related to technology. You can see some of my work, research, and other interests at www.jsvfoto.com. Why technology? I have a Master of Educational Technology and this is my little contribution to help others out in this vast and wondrous field! Thanks for visiting my blog!
Interests Technology, photography, visual literacy, instructional design, animation, writing, and hiking. I also enjoy swimming here and there and playing the odd game of chess over a cup of mocha.
Favorite Movies The Wizard of Oz, The Black Stallion, The Incredibles, Secondhand Lions, Big Hero 6, Star Wars, Indiana Jones
Favorite Music Varies on my mood, but I've been known to listen to music in Spanish while I translate documents from French to English and vice versa.
Favorite Books Too many to list...my favorites are Middle Grade and YA books. I am particularly partial to Fantasy novels and Newberry medal winners. Roald Dahl, C.S. Lewis, Tolkien, Brooks, DiCamillo, and Spinelli are some of my favorite authors.

What's the earliest you've gotten up to watch cartoons and what did you see?
