Thank you for becoming one of my colleagues on Ning in Education. I appreciate your support in connecting with me. I offer a number of programs which may be of interest to middle school, high school, college and university faculty and students.
My flagship presentation Games To Explain Human Factors: Come, Participate, Learn and Have Fun!!! is outstanding for technology classes. It shows participants some considerations in designing products and systems for people to use. It is also an excellent course for English classes, because it teaches a great deal about effective communication. It is also an excellent program for math, science and career classes. This program is great from middle school to graduate school. . You may wish to join the Games To Explain Human Factors group on Ning in Education. I took the liberty of sending you an invitation to join to make it easy for you to do so.
Effective Leadership Involves Working Through Others is great for students just elected or appointed to leadership roles at the high school or college level.
I’m Awesome, But I Have My Limitations works very well at a milestone in middle school, such as completing all of the basic 9th grade courses in a technical education program.
What’s My Job: An Effective Career Orientation Program For Middle School Students not only teaches students about potential careers, but it also improves student-parent communications.
Activities To Facilitate Career Planning and Gaining Meaningful Employment is a optimal program for students planning their careers, from high school juniors to graduate Students.
I would enjoy working with you on a program that would be just right for your students or faculty in-service. Please take a look at my listing pages, the photo albums which I have posted from a few of my programs and perhaps my profile on Google. Let me know how we might work together.
I understand that budgets are tight this year, but don’t let that be a limiting factor. I will guarantee teachers in Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts and CT that working together we can come up with an affordable way to bring these programs to you.

With your work in Education Technology for SABES, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.
