About me

 My goal, both in and out of the classroom, is to improve daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly as an educator and bring students to levels of success in all areas of life, not just mathematics. I want to inspire those students who have just gone through the motions to truly take control of their learning and realize that anything is possible if they set their minds to it and are willing to put forth the time, effort, and hard work required to succeed.  I want to make math both meaningful and memorable for my students.  I use technology to make class time more enjoyable, engaging, and effective for my students.

What is augmented reality? Augmented reality superimposes sounds, videos, and graphics onto an existing environment. It uses four main components to superimpose images on current environments: cameras and sensors, processing, projection, and reflection. Each of these components provides an individual function. For example, cameras and sensors can detect an image’s depth or calculate the distance between two objects before superimposing digital content atop the user’s view. Projection and ref...

But when I read that we need to maintain a blog on a weekly basis, I was not sure if I can do that. At first, it was really terrifying. My entire reason for keeping a private diary was to reflect in private. The idea of sharing my ideas with everyone on the web meant opening myself up to more scrutiny and critique than I’d ever faced. But most of all, it meant sharing myself with the world. I’d barely been comfortable sharing myself with myself. How could I possibly share it with others? I quickly learned that I wasn’t sharing myself with all that many people.  I feel now safer to share more and write more. And after about 9 weeks, I feel like I can write regularly, share my ideas, and I can learn an incredible amount from people’s reactions. However, there is one thing I don’t like about...
