Why am I a teacher? To work with young people; to help them gain confidence and build skills; to see the moment when they truly "get" something.

Technology is going to become a very important player in the 21st century classroom. Teaching the way I was taught is not practical or engaging. We want our students to be problem solvers, team players, and resourceful learners. Knowledge based classrooms aren't as necessary anymore when knowledge is in the palm of our hands. Schools have to embrace technology to prepare students for a global world, but that doesn't mean that we don't still need excellent teachers to encourage and inspire.
