My goal for this program is to gain a better understanding of ways to teach through technology. Although I am not a teacher myself, I have always tried to balance the technological aspects of my job, managing a network for an insurance company, with opportunites to teach and help other people expand their knowledge of computers. I have taught MIS classes at St. Louis University, and for 2 years I was a Microsoft Certified Trainier and traveled around the country delivering Microsoft classes. More recently I have taught classes at my company on ways the insurance industry uses technology and computers.
My goal is to use this degree to focus more on the teachning aspects, and not just on the technology. I hope to move into a postion developing content and delivering classes for businesses, or in a post-secondary setting.
I like your goal, how do you see blogging weekly on what you are learning helping you reach that goal?
