Welcome!

This weblog will document my activities as a New Trier High School social studies instructor and GCT (Google Certified Teacher). What I'd like to feature includes:
  1. Tools which transform instruction, not just tools for the sake of using existing technology
  2. Applications of these tools to my own teaching in the classroom
  3. Demonstrating how the fair use of copyrighted materials can enhance digital learning and media literacy
I am available for speaking engagements. My specialties are Social Studies and Multimedia Integration, as well as Copyright and Fair Use advocacy. Feedback and questions from any visitor is very much appreciated!
