Greetings-
I am an Astronomy teacher at Battlefield High School in Haymarket, VA. Battlefield is a part of Prince William County School System. This year I am teaching Astronomy to Juniors and Seniors; it is my 10th year teaching Astronomy. I have also taught Oceanography and Earth Science, all to high school students.
In over 15 years teaching, I have seen a tremendous growth in technology and how it is used in the classroom. I have seen it go from being a luxury to a necessity. Few educators, however, can harness this tool to transform their classroom. I want to be a teacher who does; that is why I am pursuing my degree in Blended and On-line Learning at George Mason University.
