  • Hazelwood School District (9 years teaching, Head Football Coach 3 years)

Our students were given Chromebooks so we jumped on the digital train making our lives much more efficient. Things were great until I changed districts and I've been unable to reproduce a similar method of delivering instruction for my students at the elementary level. This past school year revealed how far I’ve fallen off the cliff from a technology stand point compared to where I was a few years ago. I expect to learn how to effectively incorporate multimedia technology tools into my content area in an effort to support my students at the elementary level. Masters plus 30 was also a motivating factor!

Multiple filming angles used for football and other sports has given coaches more insight on game play. The introduction of Hudl in 2006 has totally revamped how coaches and student athletes market themselves. Prior to Hudl, I created my student athletes highlight films on iMovie. This past school year Canvas became our go to learning hub for our students K-6 grade.
