WELCOME TO MY BLOG

I currently work for the Professional Development Program and am a grad. student at U Albany studying Curriculum Development and Instructional Technologies. I also coach football, but this is my way of being a techy. I'll be writing on various topics that all have the common theme of technology and education. The main focus will be on the adult learner. I hope you choose to become a follower, the world needs them too.

Who's the adult learner? This guy

So on my resume it says "I'm a lifelong learner." I've used that line hundreds of time and I really believe we are all life long learners. Mark Twain said “I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.” Well now the juggle begins as I continue my schooling by becoming a graduate student. The interesting thing is that I don't think my schooling will get in the way of my education. I think a lot of the skills I strived to acquire as a life long learner will be cultivated by my masters program. The wide open field of curriculum development and instructional technologies will allow me to learn about education and technology I would have looked to learn anyways. So the marriage of the two sounds like it will work. I hope I don't let Mark Twain down by blending the two.
