http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7f/Movicons2-hello.gif Welcome WikiEducators,

Gladys Gahona is a mexican private teacher. In 1981 she graduated in chemical engineering at Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (UADY), in Mérida, Yucatán, México. In 2002 she graduated in Technology Management at UADY.

For over thirty years she has taught mathematics, physics and chemistry. Currently she owns a small academy where she teaches: AF Centro. She has been in touch with computer technology since 1980 and started navigating the Internet since the early 90's.

The knowledge she has gained in teaching/tutoring comes from her personal experiences and self-studies. She has also been a self learner in computing, web programing, ITC and web 2.0 platforms and tools.

As a perseverant learner and passioned for challenges, she has spent thousands of hours seeking new ways to integrate personal learning experiences into her teaching activities.

She has devoted her professional life to her two passions: teaching and learning.

My Professional Interests

Mastering English language as a way to gain opportunities to reach more learners on my teaching subjects.

Building my capacities for developing e-learning programmes and courses.

I'm interested in OER projects, hope I can soon join experts on collaborative jobs.

Offering my capacities on translating WikiEducator content to Spanish language.

Develop original content in spanish language using all I know about Web 2.0 resources & technologies.

I'm targeting to be a WikiMaster, so I have a long way to walk.

Mastering [math]\mathrm{L\!\!^{{}_{\scriptstyle A}} \!\!\!\!\!\;\; T\!_{\displaystyle E} \! X} \,[/math] in order to create high quality science books.

My areas of expertise

• I am Chemical Engineer by professional formation. Worked in engineering from 1981 to 1983, when I had to quit, responding on "mother nature calling" (got high risk pregnancy). So it marked the end on my proffesion (chemical engineer) activities.

• Postgraduate Diploma in Technology Management. 2002

• I am teacher by vocation. I consider myself as a permanently self-learner on this activity since 1976. I started teaching Maths to kids on a secondary school. At that time I started working in Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán, as assistant on several educational researching activities and colaborative jobs with people from different countries. Later, I started a private teaching small institute.

• About computing topics, I'm a self-learner:
  • I've been using several applications:
    • MSDOS
    • Windows on all versions (except Windows Vista)
    • Microsoft Office
    • Adobe Suites (Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash CS3, Illustrator, Photoshop, Audition, Premier, etc.)
    • Web development (HTML, CSS, Newbie in PHP/MySQL)
    • Open source apps. (Open Office, Mozilla, Audacity, VirtualDubMod,
    • Software for business management
  • And some Web 2.0 technologies & resources
    • Blogging
    • Networking on Xing, Facebook, LinkedIn, Hi5, etc.
    • Now I'm discovering Ning
    • Image's sharing networks like Flickr, ImageHack, Picassa Google
    • Paper's sharing networks like SlideShare, Scribd, WiziQ, AutorStream
    • Media sharing networks like YouTube, TeacherTube, GoogleVideo, Blip.tv
    • Addicted to WikiEducator
    • [math]\mathrm{L\!\!^{{}_{\scriptstyle A}} \!\!\!\!\!\;\; T\!_{\displaystyle E} \! X} \,[/math] initiated, that means learning, learning, learning...

Reflection

I do love maths, chemistry, physics and teaching. I had excellent professors supporting me, most of them I still remember and honor. I'm certain it is one of the main reasons.

My Publications

I have published:

• 

  Guía para el Monitoreo de Patentes

My role as private teacher

Related to my job I've produced several flash videos and papers. Some of them are:

My Personal Interests

• El Sistema Lagunar Nichupte
• Un paseo por los enigmáticos cenotes de Quintana Roo
• Whale Shark near Isla Contoy (An exciting personal experience never lived before)
• Near 40 dolphins surrounding our boat. Memorable

I love absolutely everything related to sea life: scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, fishing, swimming, sunrises, sunsets.
