Epic world of math

After doing lots of reading about gamification, I decided to take the plunge, and created "The epic world of math". Students will work towards levelling up (challenging increasingly difficult problems), go on missions and quests, earn badges, and at the end of the unit, challenge boss levels (problems that require them to apply their knowledge in new ways). Should be fun! 

This is the link to my site that I am using with students:

(Only members of the SPERD domain can view!)

I created this infograph using piktochart that I included on the front page of my site to get students pumped up about our new approach to math


Vision for the future

Vision of the future of Education


As part of an assignment for my EDEL 545 course through the university of Alberta, we were required to create a presentation that reflected our vision for the future of education. This is my vision. If you click on the link below the slide deck, you will be able to see the presentation with my notes included, which contains many links and more concise information about what each topic entails.

Google Piktochart

I was playing around with Piktocharts this week, and so I decided to  make my own infograph about Google in the Classroom. Here it is :)
