and I'm the technology teacher at Shepherd of the Hills Christian School in Centennial, CO.

I have a heart and passion for technology and for educational ministry for our Lord Jesus Christ.

This blog is a natural result of these unique interests. I have 20 years of teaching experience in Lutheran schools, the last five exclusively as a technology teacher.

I seek to use the talents that God has given me to enhance His Kingdom in new, exciting, and creative ways, utilizing the technology tools with which we have been blessed to enhance ministry for Christ.

So I'm back to blogging, and here are some links of things I've recently found on the Internet:

  • I watched our 3rd grade teacher effectively use this comic generator with her class today. Looks like a great way to incorporate some writing skills in a new way.
  • If you are looking for additional educational links, here is another blog of mine which lists links that I've shared through LEA listservs.
  • Want to know which passwords to avoid? Check out the 10 Most Common Passwords. It seems like we might have a role as educators in helping our students create strong passwords as we seek to share with them the importance of password security.
  • Take a Google Literature Trip. This uses Google Earth to teach literature topics. I'd love to see something comprehensive like this for history. Wouldn't a Google Earth battlefield tour be fascinating?
  • Here is yet another discussion on Wikipedia. The consensus that I'm starting to see (and that I think is appropriate) is that we should allow our students to use Wikipedia, but not as their only source, teaching them how to discern the truth of information from all sites, not just wikis.

  • A Whole New Mind, by Daniel Pink: Actually, I'm re-reading this book (I may have to purchase a copy for myself instead of always using a library copy!)  Pink identifies six senses that are becoming essential for success in 21st century society. An excellent read for all educators and church leaders, even though it is not written from a Christian perspective.
  • Crazy '08, by Cait Murphy: A great study of the famous 1908 baseball season -- the last one where the Cubs won the World Series. Very much enjoying the description of the most memorable game in Cubs history -- the 4-2 victory at the New York Giants in the final National League game of that season.
