Introduction
Hello Everyone! Who: My name is Jordan Balhorn Where: Islander Middle School, Mercer Island, Washington (Close to Seattle) What: I teach 8th grade social studies, this is my 2nd year teaching! How: I have always really enjoyed using tech in the classroom, students love it and it makes learning so much more exciting! Also- holy crap, who knew my first year of teaching would be end up in a whirlwind of online teaching and total reliance on technology! Why: I really love learning, and technology is so vital to teaching, now more than ever! I think it can provide a great environment for students and make learning accessible to all. I want to continue fine tuning my abilities and try to be the best educator possible.
