About
Name: Kelly Tenkely Teaching History: 1 year as a 2nd grade classroom teacher, 7 years as a k-5 technology specialist/teacher. 5 years as a technology integration specialist offering mentoring, training, and professional development. Current Work: I am not in the classroom, you can learn more about that decision . In the year I was out of the classroom, I offered freelance technology training, social media consulting, professional development, curriculum design, and technology integration consulting, virtual classroom. If you are interested in working with me, you can contact me . In 2011 I started my own school, . I believe that education needs a reinvention. Anastasis is my dream of what education can and should be. In 2010 I created the . I am currently seeking for this project that will make personalized learning available to children all over the world. I wasn’t always the computer geek I am today…I kind of fell into the computer teacher role and found out that I love it andthat I have a passion for technology (particularly Apple!!) who knew? My goal is to help teachers fall in love with technology the way that their students have. I believe that technology reaches students in a way that few other mediums can. It ignites a fire, a desire to learn, and gives them the ability to express themselves in meaningful ways. I have never had a student who didn’t love my class…I am a good teacher but I am not THAT good, what they love is using technology to learn. So with that in mind, I set out to give teachers a resource where they could find easy-to-implement ideas for using technology in their own classrooms. I hope that iLearn Technology is a great resource for teachers but also that they would find even one piece of technology that they are passionate about. I have found in my own technology walk, all it took was one really great website (www.starfall.com) and I was hooked. My belief is that technology meets students needs, engages them, and helpsthem to be the best learner they can be.
