Welcome to my PSU Space
I am the Director of Education Technology Services for Penn State University. In this role, I have the opportunity to help direct and drive the direction of the University's commitment to teaching and learning with technology. I am lucky enough to work with an amazing staff who are dedicated to transforming the use of technology in teaching and learning. We focus our energy on instructional design, educational technology, digital media, and faculty development. Currently at ETS, I am leading efforts to bring University wide podcasting and blogging services to faculty, staff, and students. I am also responsible for the Digital Commons initiative, the TLT Symposium, components of the Blended Learning Initiative, Adobe Connect Pro, iTunes U, the TLT Communities, the PSU Serious Gaming Initiative, and supporting the use of ANGEL for teaching and learning ... there are a bunch of other projects and initiatives that I deal with as well.
I focus all the time I can thinking about how technology can be used to extend the reach of teaching and learning. I travel quite a bit -- meeting with other Institutions, participating in the CIC Learning Technologies Committee, working with industry partners, giving talks, and exploring new opportunities. You can keep up with the work I do and the stuff I am thinking about by reading this blog, Learning & Innovation, and by keeping an eye on my Updates blog.
