Timely
Topics...
This
Web site is designed for educators who want to find lessons, ideas,
projects, and information on the Internet fast. The links
are arranged by subject and then divided into more specific areas
so that things can be quickly located. This site could also
be used by families, either for additional information on a topic
of interest to the family or by families who have chosen to home-school
their children. In addition, this site can be used by students who
want to learn more about a topic or who are looking for a project
to present at their school.
I originally designed this site for use with my
students. It was so useful and so much fun that it just kept
growing! Now I am adding more information for students, teachers
and parents. I am also in the (slow!) process of redesigning the
site because of the amount of information I have accumulated.
In Timely Topics you will find important events for each day of the month and has information about
online projects for students and teachers. These projects are listed
according to the day registration for the project closes and are found
at the bottom of each month's page in the section with orange background.
What I'm Doing
Now
During the fall 2008 semester,
I am teaching:
"Theoretical Foundations of Reading" and "Reading in the Middle School " for SUNY
New Paltz; "Early Literacy Instruction: Birth - PreK"
online for Touro College; "Contemporary Business Communication", "Teaching as a Profession", "Diversity in the Classroom",
"Teaching as a Profession" and "Child Development" for Axia College of University of Phoenix, and "Developmental English"
for DeVry University Online. I also am a mentor for prospective online teachers for Axia College and I am a Live Lecturer for the Devry Developmental English Course.
In addition, I am a field trainer for Thinkfinity. I continue to review books for the magazine Library
Media Connection, participate in the reading for visually impaired
program at the Albert
Wisner Public Library (NY), and I am a trustee for the Chester
(NY) Free Library. I'm looking forward to fall!
Please feel free to browse my site.
Let me know your ideas, helpful suggestions, and things you like
about the site!
