I am a instructor at the University
of South Florida in Tampa, as a member of the Secondary
Education Instructional
Technology program. Here I instruct undergraduates and
graduates in instructional/educational technology and science
methods. Additionally I am coordinator for the Graduate
Certificates in Instructional Technology program. Along with
general university instruction I work with FCIT presenting workshops
and working with Professional
Development Schools, such as Pasco County's T. Weightman
Middle School, and Tampa's King High. My main interests and works
are in the use of multimedia for the enhancement of instruction
and the development of instruction for distance learning,
including classic media technologies and the use of the
Internet's World Wide Web.
My doctoral dissertation involed a study into the applications
of using content rich entertainment films and repurposing them
for science education. If you are really interested you can
download the PDF version of EFFECT OF
USING REPURPOSED SCIENCE RICH FEATURE FILMS WITH VARYING LEVELS
OF STUDENT ACTIVITY IN MIDDLE GRADES SCIENCE INSTRUCTION or

And if you really want to know all the details
about my career so far you can read my resume.
