With the intensity of the school year, it is difficult to keep up with all the reading I want to do. Fortunately, the summer months bring a respite to that intensity and allow me to ramp up my reading and new learning. I thought I would share some of the titles I am reading this …

What I Have Learned About AI and Education (Part Two)
Last week I shared some of the things that I have been learning about AI and education in my research and practical applications with students. I did not want the post to be too long and overwhelming, so I split the list into two segments. Therefore, it is time to publish Part Two: Transparency Vicki …

Thoughts on Understanding Genesis
This morning I completed reading my 26th book of the year. Understanding Genesis, by Dr. Jason Lisle of the Institute for Creation Research, sat on my desk for several years before I picked it up once more and read through it over the past several weeks. I am glad I did because this was extremely …
The Book of Ruth and Hope
Some of you may already know this about me, but I am constantly reading through the Bible. My general pattern is to read from four different areas of Scripture at a time: Psalms, Proverbs, and Wisdom Literature, New Testament, Old Testament History, and Old Testament prophets.

Living in a Genesis 1:27 Understanding
The name of this blog, FaithEdTech, is intentional. For me, faith in Jesus Christ as my eternal Savior comes first. He has called me to share Him through the vocation of education, and he has blessed me with an interest and aptitude for using technology to do just this. It is for these reasons that …
My Three Words Guiding 2020
Several years ago the #OneWord movement began in education. This is where educators select a word that will guide them in the coming year -- a focal point for their work in their next trip around the sun. Twitter is a common place for these words to be shared with other educators looking for support …
