Welcome!
Hello, my name is Justin Bruno, and I currently live in Howell, Michigan and work for the Michigan Virtual Learning Research Institute, a division of Michigan Virtual University. At MVU, we provide online coursework for K-12 students in Michigan as well as across the country. I'm interested in EdTech because I'd like to eventually go on to pursue a doctorate in Ed Tech to further my career in research. I've always been interested in EdTech, even back when I was working as a teacher in Louisiana. The school at which I worked was sorely lacking in its tech usage, and I'm now excited that in my new career I can help influence policy and practices in regard to the use of EdTech. In my spare time, I enjoy playing golf, hanging out with my girlfriend, camping, getting outside with our dog, and talking with my friends who still live in the New Orleans area. I'm really excited about the course and the things I'll be able to learn and utilize in my career.

Hey Justin--great profile picture; is that in Michigan? I love your desire to "influence policy and practices..." through your EdTech degree(s). I look forward to working with you this semester!
ReplyDeleteThanks Casey - that photo is actually in Niagara, on the Canadian side :)
ReplyDeleteJustin, it is great to connect with you. I am very interested in the work that you are doing because I am actually an online K-12 teacher in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Perhaps we will be able to work together in some respect with virtual learning in our careers. Welcome to the course. I look forward to learning with you.
ReplyDeleteHey Justin, I am so pumped to be connecting with great people like you. In the half week that our class has begun I have already learned about so many areas of EdTech that I had no idea about! Great to meet you and I look forward to collaborating this semester!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your intro post, Justin. I know that Michigan has really led the way in online education, and you should really benefit from the courses you take in our EDTECH program. Thanks again for the introduction and welcome to the course.
