Welcome!
My name is Karin Brown, and I would like to welcome you to my portfolio. I created this website to showcase what I learned while completing my master's degree in Educational Technology through Boise State University. This website contains several components. This page serves an introduction to my portfolio. The next page contains artifacts, which are assignments I created that show mastery of the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) standards developed in 2012. The following page contains a Rationale Paper I wrote, which gives an in-depth explanation of how each artifact shows mastery of each standard. The final page contains a Reflection Video in which I reflect on what I learned throughout the Master of Educational Technology program.
About Me
My name is Karin, and from 2011 to 2015, I taught high school math in Barnesville, MN. I became interested in Educational Technology when Barnesville Public Schools adopted a 1:1 iPad Initiative in the 2012-2013 school year. I wanted to take full advantage of these devices, so I enrolled in the Master of Educational Technology program at Boise State in August of 2013 to learn more about integrating technology into the classroom. In 2015, I moved to a new city and accepted a new position at St. Paul Preparatory School in St. Paul, MN as a PowerSchool Administrator and Technology Integrationist. Then, in 2016, I accepted a position at the University of Minnesota's Carlson School of Management as an Instructional Designer. Currently, I'm an Instructional Designer for the Univeristy of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN. |
