- About Me:
- Currently, I am semi-retired after 33 years of teaching, enjoying 5 day weekends, and teaching only 2 days during the week at Zion Lutheran School in Anaheim. Most of my years as a teacher were spent as a Technology Coordinator. Even though I'm retired, I still find myself very interested in technology and the latest gadgets. I am a faithful Macintosh fan and enjoy using the video iPod as well as the iTouch. I was thrilled to read in the latest Fortune magazine that Apple was selected as the number
one "most admired company." I remember a time in the 80's when Zion received its first Apple computer in the Apple give-away program. I was the one who stepped forward to open the box, learn and teach Logo, and introduce the "Oregon Trail" software to the students. Like Alan, I also remember the good old "MECC software" and "UGLE" days. It was great fun to share some of our new technology bits and bytes with other users. I also remember the days of NetDay '96 when Zion first became wired for the Internet. My father, brother, husband and friends helped us run the wire into all of the classrooms at Zion so we could reach out on the Internet and go where only a few schools had gone before. That was the beginning of a new adventure for many of us.
I just returned from CUE 2008 and I must admit, educational technology is still very exciting, even to a semi-retired Technology Coordinator. There is so much to learn and so much to share with the students who are just entering our schools.
