My name is Kerri Crawford. Please introduce yourself!

Hello, this is Mark Lang.  I work in Client Support here at Stony Brook University.  I don't teach a class, per se, but I do like to help people help themselves in regards to their computer troubles!

Hi there.  It's Courtney.

In the traditional introduce yourself manner (name, title, interesting fact,) here I am:

Courtney, Residence Hall Director - Toscanini College, I'd love to eat a burrito every day.

Hello All,

It's Pat Presti.  Tech. Ed. Teacher Nortport Schools/Ferry Captain Fire Island Ferries (Bay Shore, NY).

Hi!  It's me, Alli Cohen, a math teacher at Great Neck North Middle School, a head counselor at Day Camp in the Park in Great Neck, and a student.

I had no idea what I was doing yesterday - so I'll do a better job introducing myself.

Kerri, second grade teacher - East Moriches School. An interesting fact - The year I was born was when IBM developed their first "commercially successful general-purpose computer." a LOT of years ago!!

Nice job setting up all of these forums Kerri.  Everyone be sure to start linking up with one another for Skype and your remaining projects.

Hi,

It's Kim Giacalone.  I'm the associate director of the SPD Online program.  I also used to teach non-credit computer classes on the side (Photoshop, Fireworks, Office, etc.), but then I had a child a few years ago. So instead of making extra money, I'm now watching my net worth decline (but it's worth it.  Really.) .  I, too, enjoy a good burrito.

Hello All,

Hi - It's Ray -  Ray DiVenuto  - I'm a high school Math teacher at Schreiber HS in Port Washington. I also teach the AP CS  (A level) class there. (Sorry for strange account name - I can't create an account with my last name ......  I'll stay with this one for now - it works..)

Ray

Hello,

It's Wessam Mesieha, I am a HS math teacher, I teach Math B, Pre caLc, and calc, I also teach computer classes in my school, channel View School For Research. I am the tech person of the school, just started!

Also I am pursuing my PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Stony Brook.

Hi, all, I'm Frank Sappell.  I'm a former I.T. exec for a bank. I'd like to work behind the scenes to facilitate teachers' use of technology.  I think we all learned how demanding this can be, and how easy it is to distract from the educational objective.

Hey all. I am still trying to navigate my way through. It seems to be working but retrieving my messages is another story.  I teach ESL in the primary grades and I wouldn't like to go solo in this unless it is absolutely necessary.

Hello! My name is Natalia Puglisi, I am in the French MAT program. I work for the company that prvides home improvements. I realized in this class I am not computer- savvy at all and the word podcasting still scares me. But I am willing to learn and this class does provide a lot of resources I will need and will definitely use when I start teaching French.  

Hi! This is Wilson. I started almost everything else including the introducing myself. Because I couldn't retrieve it I am forced to introduce myself again.  I intend to use as much as possible all these powerful tools in my ESL classes.  The possibilities are enormous.  Thank you for reading this more than once.
