Welcome!
Welcome to the GHS Technology Resources Website! As your Instructional Technology Specialist, my goal is help you feel more comfortable incorporating technology into your classroom instruction. I hope to streamline the incorporation of Internet based technology as well as the technology available at school through these resource pages. I will update the pages and add to them on a regular basis. If you know of some good resources you would like for me to add, please let me know via email and I will add them to the page. I will also periodically add articles of interest to the Home Page for you to read.
Please let me know if I can help you in any way.
