Hi everyone!<\/p>\n
My name is Jon Patry, and I reside in the city of Calgary, Alberta\u00a0(sorry if you have read this bio intro already).\u00a0I am currently employed by the Calgary Board of Education as a Grade 4\/5 teacher and an in-house Technology Learning Leader. There are many new fun and technology driven projects happening in our elementary school, and the students are becoming\u00a0savvy\u00a0digital citizens.<\/p>\n
I had two goals for this school year, one being to create a classroom blog (check) and the other is to have each student create their own personal webspace to use as a portfolio (still work to be done). The personal webspace might be a larger wish (with many privacy issues), but one that I am hoping to become a reality! \u00a0Along the lines of working towards students creating their own portfolio\/webspace, I recently have joined that revolution. \u00a0You can take a gander if that is something that interests ya! http:\/\/www.eduboot.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n I am currently enrolled in my 7th & 8th MET courses this summer . \u00a0I have never taken a\u00a0business\u00a0or entrepreneurial course before in any of my schooling. \u00a0I am really looking forward to this course and the new learning curve that comes with it all! \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Cheers,<\/p>\n Jon<\/p>\n \n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi everyone!
