Megan Kohlman
My goal is to work in partnership with teachers, administrators, parents, students, and community members to create information and technology literate citizens of all ages. In June 2014, I completed EdTech Leaders Online Facilitator training. I have had the privilege of facilitating two Intel courses with Megan Vittitow, AMS Library Media Specialist. In February 2015, I finished my exams to become a Certified Google Educator! I am looking forward to providing Google training as I work toward Authorized Google Trainer status. |
