ABOUT ME

What's not to like about what I teach?!  Computers & Technology are 21st Century Skills which all students are exposed to to some extent in their educational careers.  I take it a few steps further, refining their skills and developing a deeper understanding of the how & why of applications, stemming in project format.

This course is focused on the theme of digital storytelling. Students will explore methods of
communication and expression in a technological world rich with digital media. All exploration and
creation will be rooted in the practice of Planning, Producing and Publishing quality, finished work.
Students will work with digital photography, music, digital video and graphic design tools to create
digital stories that seek to inform, enlighten, empower and entertain. In so doing, students will
experience what it means to be an author and expert in the digital world. Class projects will include
both news-oriented material and creative assignments.
