//"There can be infinite uses of the computer and of the new age technology, but if the teachers themselves are not able to bring into the classroom and make it work then it fails." // //-Nancy Kasebaum, US Senator // || Cindy Clark Hello fellow group members! I teach 6-7-8 grade visual arts in Northwest New Jersey (in the mountains!) and see about 750 students a year. I've been teaching for 9 years and before that I was a graphic designer. Like Jay, I would like to use wikis more in my classroom and involve technology more in my lessons. I can't wait for summer!

Kim-Anh Cao Hi Everyone. I'm from California, USA. I am currently teaching the middle grades and taught 5th grade for five years before that. I think the best way for us to collaborate and talk is here within this site. My e-mail is kim-anh.cao@waldenu.edu. I'm excited and looking forward to working with everyone with this wiki site. Kim

Jay O'Hanlon I am an eighth grade social studies teacher in a small public school just outside of Cleveland, Ohio. I have taught social studies for the last three years, and prior to that I taught English/Language Arts in Florence, South Carolina. In the fall I also coach high school football. I am looking forward to using wikis in my classroom in the future and am glad I can experiment a little bit with them prior to implementing them in my classroom.

LaVerne Smith Hello my fellow classmates. I teach middle school ID students in Gaffney, SC. I moved to Gaffney from Boston, Mass. because of a snow storm in the middle of May. This summer I will be tutoring reading at the Boys & Girls Club. I hope each of you will have a restful summer.

Shelby Murphy Hi Everyone! I wear multiple hats in my district. Currently I am a 6th grade teaching assistant, AIS instructor, and am one of two elementary computer instructors. I am looking forward to working with everyone on this wiki.

Nikisha Greer Hello everyone! I am a middle school special education inclusion teacher in Memphis, TN. I have taught for 5 years and also have served as the school's technology coordinator since obtaining my EdS. This summer I will work summer school as a special education teacher targeting the areas of math and language arts. I look forward to working with everyone on this group activity.

Amy McDowell I am finally figuring out how I am able to post on here. I just completed my 6th year of teaching. I have taught 3rd, 2nd, and 4 years of 5th grade. I teach in Baton Rouge, LA in a school with a 100% free lunch population of students. I mainly teach math because my 1st master's degree is in math and reading but next year I have to switch back to teaching all subjects. I am doing absolutely nothing this summer except traveling and relaxing. I am the administrator for our online professional development community and enjoy doing that very much.

Byron Early I guess i'm just like Amy, I just really figured out how to post, lol. But here I am. I am currently a teacher in Mississippi and I teach 5th and 6th grade Science. I enjoy it but I think I would enjoy it more if my students could use technology to do most of their assignment and master objectives. About 60% of my students score at least basic or advanced on their state test but my goal is to have all of my students at a proficient level, with technology being the tool to drive them there.

Linda Berry Hello everyone, I am a 7th & 8th Grade Technology Application Teacher in Texas. I have taught Keyboarding, Career Investigation, General Clerical Pre-employment lab for 37 years, and I am now teaching Technology Applications.
