Where to begin? I am currently serving as the Educational Technology Specialist for Family & Consumer Sciences, and also have an appointment as the Family & Consumer Sciences Educator in the Miami County Extension office. I’ve chosen social media and mobile learning as my specialties for our pilot year of the Ed Tech project, because I love social media and am simply fascinated by the explosion of mobile learning technologies that are rapidly changing how people not just have access to education, but are also changing the very ways they learn educational information! I am also very interested in how these technologies can be successfully researched so that we can gain insight into how to best utilize them in our field.
Like all Extension professionals, I wear many hats. Ed Tech Specialist and Educator are only two. I’m also a mom and wife and enjoy cooking, running, traveling, cheering on the Buckeyes in The Shoe with my husband, a good glass of vino, and of course helping with homework or shuttling my kids to wherever they need to be on any given night!
