=Welcome to ACA's Teacher Training Workshop Support.=

Welcome!
 Let me introduce myself to those of you whom I haven't previously met. I hold a Graduate Certificate in Instructional Technology Integration. I am currently completing the Master of Education Degree in Instructional Technology from the University of Maryland University College. I earned a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree from The Pennsylvania State University. My adult career has predominantly revolved around technology driven businesses, and I have been in both corporate and entrepreneurial environments. Since 1992, I have independently consulted to other small businesses, developing business strategies that implement computer technologies, as well as, customized employee training projects.

 My career became passionately drawn towards K-8 education four years ago, when I found myself teaching the Health and Fitness curriculum to K-8 students in a nearby independent, faith-based school. This past school year 2013-2014, I had the delightful opportunity to additionally teach a computer literacy and digital citizenship course to the K-5 students at my school, which included support for classroom technology integration throughout other subjects of reading and science across the school.

 Learning how to evolve the professional development technology training needs of my teaching peers through this pilot workshop is part of my intended outcome. I believe your outcomes will be measured successfully, when you take what you will learn here back into your classrooms in innovative and improved instructional practice.

This workshop will be going live with the teaching colleagues at my school in about two weeks, with a few very minor adjustments. They are novices at technology integration in the K-8 classroom.
