This week I shared the Bates and Poole’s SECTIONS reading and the UBC ToolKit document based on SECTIONS with several decision makers and colleagues in my district. I was glad to hear that they see value in using such a framework as there is currently no set procedure for assessing technology integration. My hope is evaluation structures such as SECTIONS or the 7 Principles will drive decision making at the classroom, school, district and ultimately the provincial level. Those interactions highlight one of the reasons why I decided to pursue a graduate degree – to gain knowledge and experiences to assist me in my professional life.

I am an Educator living in Quispamsis, New Brunswick Canada. Currently, I am seconded from my Grade 5 class at Island View School to the position of Educational Support Teacher – Technology in the Southern Anglophone School District. Technology has been a common thread throughout my careers in education and community services. Now I am fortunate to be able to use my enthusiasm for integrating digital technologies into my teaching pedagogy and share those experiences with others in my district.
