The three overarching phases of my framework for technology integration is Learn the Tech, Master the Tech, & Teach the Tech. Each of these phases builds off of each other and requires knowledge and competency to progress to the next stage. The Signature keynote engages participates in an in-depth lecture on each of these components. Each of the three components is also available as a workshop.

Keynotes and workshops are also available in the areas of educational leadership and research conducted. Current offerings are detailed below.

Technology is here to stay. Yet, the same concerns have been addressed with teachers in schools, and academic literature, as to the lack of confidence and ability of educators to integrate technology into their curriculum lessons. The reason for this is the absence of a solidified methodology for technology integration. This signature keynote exposes participants to the Framework for Educational Technology Integration. This keynote can be presented either face-to-face or virtually.

Master the Tech

Mastering the tech requires individuals to go beyond the basics of technology literacy. Not only do we need to go through a formal evaluation of our current lesson plans we need to become mini experts in the technology that we use. This phase includes the processes of modify, remodel, and regulate. This section is one of the most challenging for educators but also comes with the greatest benefits.
