Technology Skills

Having worked in a technology-rich environment involving 1:1 laptop integration in an educational setting since 1993, I am a very proficient user of technology. As part of my experience, I am very familiar with the process of learning new technology tools and applications. Countless times I have shown myself capable of 'figuring out' new technology skills in an efficient manner so as to keep up with an ever-changing technology landscape. 

Though not a computer geek, I quickly became the go-to person for overseeing the use of technology at Brewster because of my ability to provide teachers with what they needed for technology. When new technology applications were being introduced, I was the person on the front lines managing the implementation of this new resource.

For a partial description of the specific technology skills I am proficient with, see the list below:

• Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) 

• Apple Suite of tools (Pages, Numbers, Keynote, iMovie)

• Google Apps for Education Suite

• Database management (guided the development of a homegrown school management database)

• LMS usage (Moodle, Canvas, Schoology)

• QuickTime Player, Screencastify  (screen capture)

• Diigo (social bookmarking)

• Inspiration (concept mapping)

• EdPuzzle (video editing for student use)
