Welcome

Welcome to my Education Blog.  I hope to write on a weekly basis about items in the world of Education.  This will include general items, classroom issues, classroom techniques and the use of technology in the classroom.

I am a teacher at Delphi Community Schools in Delphi, IN.  I am going to refer to myself as the "lead learner" of the classroom.  I must give credit to Dr. Tony Sinanis and Jason Bodnar, two educators I follow on twitter for the idea.  This shift is to remind me that I am working with my students in learning every day.

I have taught for the last six years using digital curriculum, which is a fancy way of saying without textbooks.  I believe that resources online provide more relevant information and help our students move forward at a faster pace.  I would suggest following Matt Miller @jmattmiller on twitter and DitchThatTextbook.com

Thanks for reading and please follow.  Send me suggestions and I will share what works and what does not work in the high school classroom.
