My name is Nick. I am a Technology Learning Coach currently working at Yokohama International School. I have been passionate about learning and technology since I was a young child. This has lead to wonderful experiences working for Apple, and several international schools around the world. I am currently completing my Masters in Educational Technology online through the University of British Columbia (UBC) while working as a full time Technology Coach. The next big thing on my agenda is the 21 Century Learning Conference in Hong Kong in February where I will be presenting on AI Policy and Guidelines for International Schools.<\/p>\r\n<p>I look forward to exploring the interesting topics in this course and hope to have my thinking challenged by reading my peers tasks and assignments on their own websites.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>Thanks for reading!\u00a0<br \/>Nick<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi there!
