The Medium is the Mashup
A cute but informative mashup video, based on an interview by Marshall McLuhan, the man who gave us such terms as 'the global village' back in the 1960s, and who foresaw how mass communication would change the fabric of society irrevocably.
After many years working in radio, TV, web TV, and interactive TV I became a school teacher.
I hold two post graduate certificates in education (secondary + online and distance education). In 2018 I graduated from King's College London with an MA in Computing Education. For that I was awarded an alumnus scholarship. My dissertation explored the ethics and challenges of using learning analytics in school contexts.
I am a founder member of Google UK's Innovators in Cloud Education group. I have presented for Google twice at the BETT show.
I have been a global co-host for Microsoft's monthly tweetmeets. I also trained co-hosts in video skills using Flipgrid.
I am a certified Apple Teacher and Microsoft Innovative Educator.
Having taught for many years in both state and independent senior schools I moved to teaching in prep schools in 2016. Now I teach from Reception to Year 8 (ages 5 - 13).
I am proud to be part of the small group of educators who have taught the entire K-12 age range. I am a full stack teacher.
