I’m Lucy Gray and I serve as an education technology specialist at the University of Chicago Center for Elementary Mathematics and Science Education. For almost twenty years, I’ve taught elementary school, middle school computer science and served as a school technology coach. In my current role, I advise curriculum developers and direct service providers on best practices in educational technology, provide PD to teachers, and help develop research projects around math and science education.
Over the course of the past few years, educators have begun to leverage Web 2.0 tools in order to learn from others outside of their silo’d school environments. I’m a living example of this; I regularly incorporate Twitter, blogs, wikis and other social media into my professional life.
