Nadine Norris

I have been in education for over 12 years. After spending a few years as a classroom teacher, I became a technology coordinator for a large parochial school in suburban Chicago. During that time, I developed an extensive professional learning network with others in the educational technology field. Currently, I am the president of Illinois Computing Educators (ICE). Attending conferences, both in person and online have helped me meet others with enthusiasm and knowledge about transforming teaching and learning to reflect the digital age. Within the past several years, I have presented various topics at the Illinois Computing Educators' (ICE) Conference, as well as regional conferences for ICE and the Office of Catholic Schools for the Archdiocese of Chicago. I have trained teachers for several years in the areas of computer applications for personal and professional use, as well as effective use of the Internet for the teaching and learning environment. My current position is as an instructional technology coordinator for an elementary district in the suburbs of Chicago.
