About me

I have a passion for education and especially for ensuring that all of us continue to apply what we have learned.  I am excited about the opportunity that the Lounge provides for all of us to discuss how we are applying what we have learned & to share those great ideas. 

I have had a varied background from secondary education to corporate training & now working in the career college sector.  But while I have moved in different circles it has always been surrounding my passion of education.  I look forward to our conversations.

Locating Yourself in the Classroom
Mark, I think you hit on a secondary benefit to movement in the classroom. It's much easier to engage our students & get participation when we are in closer proximity & keeping it fresh with movement. Ryan

Challenges of Using Students Groups
Agreed. For one of my courses that involves a group project, part of the grade is based on their peers feedback. I have specific categories in which they are graded: contribution, openness to others' ideas/opinions, timeliness, reliability, etc. This is preparation for the work force & they need to be ready.
