About Me
This picture was taken at the Summer Palace in Beijing summer 2007 at a China US Literacy conference speaking on the new literacies of ICTs. In November 2007 our partner from Kingston University in London joined me in Quebec City, Canada, to share our Global Connections project. In January, 2008, I joined our Taiwanese colleagues to present the project at Taipei E-Learns Conference at Taipei Municipal University of Education. In March I'll present about the project at the American Education Research Association in New York City. The project provides opportunities to meet other educators looking to global connections from around the world.

Hi Dr. McPherson, it's good to hear from you, again; I do enjoy (re)connecting with NYIT colleagues on this network;

anyway, my school is phasing out and I need to secure a position, preferably before July; if you could be of some help, please let me know;

I plan to take some IT classes over the summer at a computer center, so my computer skills back up my teaching and graduate classes experience

Thank you, for your time and attention, I have started teaching this and I'm going to use it at the end of this month for my class to do several projects. All testing has been completed and now the principal said that we can. I also added my literature circle power point as well, I experimented with 3 different styles to allow for differentiated instuction. Some students are very artistic and some are not, so I allowed for the ones that weren't to cut and paste. Let me know what you think about this style.

Hi Dr. McPherson! Val gave me your syllabus and everyone caught me up basically on everything I missed in class on Thursday. Truthfully, I think I would have preferred to be in class on that day. Boston was exhausting! It was fun, but a lot of responsibility with so many kids. I will see you this Thursday!

Zarahusain,
Good luck in getting everything completed. I'm sure you are very busy with much to do although the end is near. I'm glad you are enjoying this Global Connnection network. When you go back to Pakistan maybe you will use something this, or a ning you set up yourself, to continue the connections. You are correct, now with IT we can keep up with IT. We hope to hear from you often.

Ms. McPherson, with all due respect, please go to the comment dated April 6th, 2008 where I mentioned that I am a student in my final semester at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. Thanks, Zara.
