Professional+Growth

__Professional Growth and Development:__

Every year I go to technology conferences such as Pete&C and Blended Schools. I take what I learn at those conferences back to both the teachers at Southern Lehigh High School and the other technology coaches in Intermediate Unit 21. The conferences have informative presenters and either this year or next year I plan to present at one of these conferences for the first time.

I am also continually learning new technologies and ideas from researching the web and experimenting with the programs on my own. I work with the teaches to determine which technologies will best align to the academic standards for their subject areas. Throughout the year I run Academies (3 hour after school professional development sessions) for teachers on various technologies and programs.

After I get my masters, I plan to continue my education by taking more technology related graduate and possibly doctorate courses.
