MY TEACHING STYLE

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I was nominated and featured in the 2013 Center for Digital Education (CDE) Yearbook Issue, a magazine that showcases innovative teaching techniques using technology. I was one of fifty educators chosen based on an independent study I completed to integrate intercultural communication with technology while focusing on standards. All of the software and internet programs used for this study were free, open use and allowed the students to establish pen pals in Pakistan. I presented at the Ohio Confederation of Teacher Education Organizations’ Spring Conference Roundtables in March 2013 for this study.
