         <description><![CDATA[<p>This year marks my 11th with Spring Education as the Education Manager of Curriculum and Innovation, my 30th as an educational coach, and my 36th year in the field of education. I’m thrilled to continue our journey in redefining digital portfolios and diving deeper into Apple apps, ensuring that all of our teachers use Apple Teacher apps to elevate their teaching practices. I’m especially excited to see the evidence of learning we’ll be able to showcase in Schoology this year, building an even stronger ATL community.</p><p><br></p><p>Outside of work, I love spending summers at the beach with friends and family and listening to live music . My 28-year-old son, who lives in Texas, still keeps me on my toes, even from afar here in Philly. We are both proud fans of the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, and, of course, Penn State!</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I am back in the ATL role after taking a year off as the Middle School Lead. I learned a lot from having some time to gather ideas from a different ATL. I am looking forward to helping our three new lower grade teachers become more comfortable with using technology in their classrooms.</p><p>Outside of school hours I live at the baseball fields watching my son play, or I can be found with a book in my hand. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Students in today's world are quick learners and have access to so much information. We need to keep pace with their progress by using technology and tools to guide students in discovering their own potential. I want my staff to create an environment of active learning where students aren’t just memorizing content, but engaging in their assignments and learning from direct experiences. I encourage my staff to transition from instructing to facilitating and coaching students in acquiring skills and knowledge. The way we teach should be intrinsically related to how we want people to lea<strong>rn.</strong></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Happy Tuesday! </p><p><br></p><p>I am Kaitlyn Hall and currently work at Chesterbrook Academy Cary in North Carolina. I am so excited to start this journey as the ATL for our school! I love watching kids learn through technology and seeing all the amazing creations they create using the apple platforms. This year my goal is to help integrate technology in our elementary classrooms which is appropriate for their different learning levels. Alot of our lower elementary techers are having a hard time with how to integrate technology appropriate for their learning levels so I would love to share my expertise on how to make it more effective for them in the classroom. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi! I'm Rosanna and this is my 10th year in education, my 5th year at Van Avery Prep, and my 2nd year as the Vanguard/ATL. </p><p>This year, my primary focus is going to be to teach students how technology can be used to make their academic (and personal) lives easier. How to use different apps to take notes, create reminders, track grades (and habits), and collaborate with others. I have found that there are a lot of students that lack organizational skills, and finding ways to help those students and prepare them for their future educational endeavors is an important goal for me this year. </p><p>Outside of school, most of the time you can find me with a coffee in one hand a book in the other. I enjoy traveling, pretending I know how to golf, going to hockey and college football games, and trying new restaurants in the cities I visit. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Southern Highlands Prep School: Las Vegas</p><p><br/></p><p>I have been in this position for the last three years, and every year I strive to do better to support my teachers and students. This year will be a little bit of a struggle as our tech teacher has moved on, and they were always a huge support for me and the teachers. </p><p><br/></p><p>For this year, I want to have more interactions with the lower school teachers to provide Apple support. We have many new ones this year, so I want to make sure they get help with ideas on how to implement more tech activities. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My name is Lis Summers and I am the Dean of Instructional Programs, as well as the music department chair.  One of the things I am most looking forward to this year is that we are starting the transformation of our library to a media resource center.  I am hoping that we are able to do more with this room, starting with a green screen, and branching into podcasts.  I am hoping eventually, that we will be able to live stream our middle school morning announcements from the media center. </p>]]></description>

I also taught on my campus for 7 years (2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade). I transitioned to the assistant principal of the Calvine campus in Sacramento, California four years ago.

My name is Meredith Benson and I work as a 4th/5th grade Math and Social Studies teacher at Chesterbrook in West Chester, PA.

Yes, and how can you elevate this project? Make it cross-curricular? Add audio? etc, etc.</p>]]></description>
