Avoiding Cookie Cutter Syndrome
I am a high school teacher in the Waterloo Region District School Board in Ontario. My passion is learning! I love to learn about a wide variety of topics in education, technology, policy, and history. This blog is an outgrowth of my recent interest in incorporating technology in the classroom. As I try to do this with my students, I hope that this space will give me an opportunity to reflect on what we do in our classroom and discuss ideas with readers of this blog. Thanks for checking it out!
