Jon Spike (@jonathanspike)

Before cutting his teeth on the mean streets of higher education, Jon got his start as a high school English teacher in Wisconsin. After three years of bad Shakespeare puns, whole-class "Thriller" videos, and a few stories later, Jon stepped into the role of Technology Integrator up in the Frozen Tundra of Green Bay. Fast forward a few years, and Jon now serves as the Coordinator of Instructional Technology Integration Services at UW-Whitewater, where he assists preservice educators and instructors in integrating technology in unique ways. He also teaches his dream course, Video Games & Learning.

When Jon is not laughing with other educators regarding their teaching tales, you might find him poorly playing a Flight of the Conchords song on guitar, writing, or finding some local karaoke establishment to frequent.
