Lead Learner (Department Head) for Global Studies at Jean Augustine Secondary School. Bringing modern learning strategies and resources developed as a 21st Century Instructional Technology Resource Teacher into the classroom. Every student should have opportunity and mentorship to develop their skills in critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity, so they can become a more active and engaged citizen for this crazy world of ours. My core philosophy is that technology should support quality teaching, and is not a substitute for effective teaching. I support other teachers looking to do the same and learn alongside them in their journey. My class is a blended learning environment, incorporating 'flipped' learning, problem based learning, and traditional approaches so that all students learn how to learn.
