Full Disclosure

The purpose of this blog is for a master's degree in educational technology from Boise State University. I am creating required work for my class called Blogging in the Classroom (EDTECH 537) and am posting assignments.

Professional Career

The reason for obtaining this master's degree is to continue my education in order to improve at my job as a middle school librarian. I currently work at Garnet Valley Middle School in Glen Mills, PA, having just finished my third year. Prior to that I was a librarian in another district and have also worked as a middle school mathematics teacher as well. My undergraduate degree from Wet Chester University is in elementary education and my first master's degree from Drexel University is in library and information science.

Blogging is not something I make a living at in any way. I have never gotten paid in any way whether it be in money or products and do not plan on getting paid in the future. The purpose of leaning to blog is to pass the knowledge on to fellow teachers as well as students to make learning more funand interesting.


I do not advertise on my blog, nor do I plan on it. As of now I have not posted any links to products nor have I suggested using or not using any specific products or services.

DISCLOSURES

Media ties: I have no media ties.

Stocks: I own no stocks.

Religion: I have never blogged about religion

Politics: The purpose of my blog is for education and I do not write about politics nor are my political views relevant to anything I write.
