This is my 13th year in elementary education at Aikin Elementary School in Paris, TX. In the past 12 years I have taught 1st, 2nd, and 4th grades This year I made the move to the Technology Lab, where I teach technology curriculum to all 5 grades. I am also the technology contact person for our campus. I am excited to be beginning work on my masters in educational technology. I chose this course of study because of my true interest in the everchanging world of technology and its impact on the future of education.
I have always been intrigued with the effect the use of technology has on students when integrated into a lesson. I have seen the most reluctant students come alive when they are given the opportunity to use technology in the classroom. Even the dreaded research of a topic becomes less tedious when students are allowed to use the internet or other computer based programs. I feel this class will help me find new ways to
help students learn through the use of technology.

Missi,
I'm from Fort Worth. It always feels good to see pics from Fort Worth and makes me feel like I'm at home.
