Personal Profile
As the Associate Director and Instructional Designer for the Teaching & Learning Center (TLC) at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York, I assist faculty to develop methods and strategies to help their students achieve desired learning objectives.
Read a brief statement about my teaching philosophy. I'm constantly researching methods regarding how technology can be used to enhance meaningful learning environments.
I'm eager to accept challenges and master new skills. When I'm not working I enjoy camping, reading, and being creative. I live in Clarence Center, New York, with my husband
Mike and our dog Astro.
Check out the Tools of Engagement website; a discovery learning program designed to encourage faculty to explore new technologies. The site was derived from the popular 23 Things Learning 2.0 Activity. It includes resources, tutorials and discovery exercises that faculty (or learners of any type) can interact with. Participation is encouraged. Log your experiences and reflections about your learning and share comments with other people who have used the site. The tasks are designed to help you learn about freely available online Web 2.0 tools and new emerging technologies such as data visualization and augmented reality. Drop me an email and let me know about your experiences using the Tools of Engagement website.
