Hello everyone! My name is Alice. I grew up in Canada and am currently teaching<\/a> overseas in a Canadian elementary in Macau. This is my 5th<\/sup> teaching year. I am a firm believer of using inquiry-based learning pedagogy and technological tools to help students thrive as gritty inquisitors. I enjoy seamlessly embedding opportunities to practice digital literacy and citizenship.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is my 7th<\/sup> MET course. Previously, I was actively engaged in: 511, 512, 520, 530, 532, 540, and 565. I have been mindfully selecting courses applicable for educators. All of these courses continued to pique my interest about learning technologies. This program supported my goal to build a firm academic understanding of emergent issues and insights about technology, pedagogy and education. More specifically, I am interested in the use of New Media such as VR for education. Recently, I am interested in learning about the technological landscape of emergency responses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Through 533, I hope to continue develop a pedagogical-sounded understanding of technological issues and tools related to math and science. I am curious about designing technological learning experiences. I am hoping to curate tools to support students while engaged in math and science related tasks.<\/p>\n

To peers, I am known as a skilful photographer and avid traveller. Given my geological advantage, I am travel frequently throughout Southeast Asia. My recent adventures entail a ride in a hot air balloon in Myanmar.<\/p>\n
