My name is Ann Smart, I am the EdTech Consultant for the Lenawee ISD and REMC 19W Director and serve as MACUL Board Member. Prior to my current position, I worked as an EdTech Consultant for Jackson County ISD, Instructional Coach for Adrian Public Schools. I have also taught Reading and PE in Silverthorn, CO, Deming, WA, and Adrian, MI
It is my passion to be at the forefront of educational innovation, maker-centered learning, STEAM education, student-centered learning, and of course technology integration. I believe that every child should have the chance to inquire, create, innovate, and play every day.
