Late Introductions

OOPs! I forgot to introduce myself.
Hi, I’m Denise. Most people call me Dee. My blog name is Denian. I have been an educator for the past 19 years. I welcomed this opportunity to become a reading specialist because many of the students at my school are reluctant and/or struggling readers. My concern therefore has always been to help to raise the literacy profile of our students because literacy is knowledge’s highway.
Thus far, I have not been disappointed (in general). I have been trying out some ideas in assessing and addressing student’s individual needs. This course is like the sugar to the blend. Most schools now have computers and internet access so it’s just a matter of negotiating with my colleagues to integrate the available ICTs into reading across the curriculum and to identify how we can move forward in literacy matters.

  1. Hi Denise

    I recognized you from your blog name-Denian. I love the greenery of your background. The hummingbird is just a perfect image for what we are attempting to do in this ICT course- we want to fly backwards and forward whilst maintaining a balance in our integratin of technology in the classroom.
