Introduction

Background Information

I graduated from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor with a Bachelor or Arts in Education, math major in 2005. I just completed my second year teaching high school mathematics. I personally have always enjoyed the challenge of thinking creatively and abstractly to study mathematics. In the past year I have been working hard to find real life/career applications for my students whenever we reach a new topic of study. I currently live close to the center of Michigan in Chesaning To contact me,

Employment

For the past two years I have taught Algebra I and Contemporary Math III at Carman-Ainsworth High School.

Previously Taken Courses

I started the Masters of Science in Mathematics at a distance program through Texas A&M University in the Spring of 2007. I have taken the following courses thus far:

I have been enjoying taking classes again very much.

Technology in my Mathematics Classroom

Currently Used Technology

Currently, I incorporate technology in my math classroom as much as possible. However, I am far from using technology regularly. It is my goal to eventually incorporate technology on a weekly, if not daily, basis. Some of the things I use and an example of the way in which they are used are as follows:

Technology I hope to use in the Future

I am sure to learn more possibilities as this class progresses.
