Hello my name is Karen McKelvey and I am a 4th grade teacher in San Diego, California. I began I feel fortunate to be part of such a great school and community. I completed my masters in Educational Technology from S.D.S.U. in 2010. Many of the concepts and technologies I learned about in this program, like learning management systems, wikis, and blogs are already implemented in my classroom daily. Technology plays a key role in the learning that occurs in our classroom. We don't learn about technology, we learn with technology. For example, every year my class participated in the Edublogs Student Blogging Challenge. For ten weeks students are engaged in activities that incorporated writing, research skills, critical and creative thinking skills and much more. I consider myself a life long learner and fortunate to do something I truly love doing...teach!
