Week 3/Leadership post: Leadership Project Hub


My leadership project presentation will showcase my Action Research Project. My AR project, “Engaging Students with Digital Visual Literacy” focuses on student engagement and connection in the classroom with the use of digital visual to enhance curriculum and classroom content.  Some of the tools included were an interactive syllabus where students had access not to only their course but to links and videos of resources needed for the class, Prezi presentations, Google+ Circle and a learning management system.
My goal is to present my AR project at Georgia Educational Technology Conference or Virginia Society for Technology in Education. Both conferences focus on merging education with the latest technologies and promoting digital technology that is changing the face of education. The ideas and concepts of these conferences support the focus of my Action Research and Literature Review. I am still very interested in presenting at Digital Media and Learning Conference and will submit when they begin to accept applications for next year’s conference.

Week 1/Leadership Project Post: To Publish or To Present


So the question is, should I present or should I publish?  As a trained graphic designer my heart and soul is gearing towards presenting instead of publishing. This is an opportunity to present my AR project with colors, images, and design. I can display my passion for change in education and art.
Do not get me wrong, the world of publishing does interest me but I am not as confident as I would like to be with my writing.  I will acknowledge that my writing has improved since Month 1 but I believe that with more time it will get even better. I will stay within my comfort zone of creativity with visuals and choose to present. This does not mean that I will never publish, it only means that I am giving myself a little bit of more time to step into the world of publishing. My journey in improving education and myself will never be over!
