Who Is This Guy?

Since we're going to be spending some time together, I'd better introduce myself. I've been working in the field of educational technology for 10 years. I've been a school district technology administrator, developed commercial web-based training, written supplemental CDs for inclusion with textbooks, and I even did a short stint at NASA. I'm currently an administrator/trainer/developer for a CMS at San Francisco State University. We're gradually converting our courses from Blackboard to Moodle.

I've spent a lot of time working with teachers to incorporate technology into their classes. I've seen what works, what doesn't, and some of the pitfalls to avoid.

I'm really an education geek. I love living at the intersection of technology and learning. There are so many new and exciting opportunities in this area that I can see myself doing this for at least another 10 years.
