Technical Training Coordinator, Staff and Faculty Development at Johnson County Community College
Kansas City, Missouri Area
I completed my Master's in Information Technology at Capella University in August, 2008. The knowledge gained from the program will help me to expand my instruction to adult learners in additional directions. Being able to combine my background and learning in web design, graphics, information architecture, online learning, and IT will help to expand my knowledge, as well as give the people in my classes a broader exposure to the knowledge that matters.
These approaches will enhance my work as a software trainer for adults in web design, graphic design, and online learning, as the field of teaching in the IT world moves in new directions.
