Welcome

Hi I am LeRoy Hill. Welcome to my wiki user page. I have been teaching since 1995 and presently I am on study leave pursuing a PhD in Education at the University of Nottingham. My professional duties in the past included, Graduate certified teacher (Social Studies, Information Technology, Geography, and Caribbean Studies), Head of Humanities Department at the Albena Lake Hodge Comprehensive School (ALHCS) and President of the Anguilla Teachers' Union. I hold a BSc in Social Studies from Andrews University and a MA in Instructional Technology (Curriculum & Instruction) from Virginia Tech. I have been an avid user of various online tools for collaborative learning and knowledge sharing. In 2003 I created a local VLE for my school ([www.classnotes.ai]) which sparked my interest in participatory design. This effort grew to be a Caribbean wide tool for students to collaborate and learn with each other. In 2008, I created an online network for Caribbean educators (Caribbean Educators Network) and presently researching a participatory framework for sustainable e-learning in a social networking setting.

I am very interested in this wiki community and really happy to have collaborated with Patricia Schlicht and Wayne Mackintosh to make this a possibility.

I am particularly interested in topics such as:

Social Inclusion, Open Education, E-learning, Participatory Design, Action Research, Socio-cultural theory.

Objectives

Possible topics or themes include: Social Media & Education Ethics of using Social Media for research Social Networking and teacher professional development or I could always create a page about CEN perhaps focus on: An overview of the CEN context, justify the need for CEN identify some of the activities outline the way forward

Reflection

I am really happy for these activities. Although I am busy with work, I find it rewarding to know that I can see quick results of my progress. Although I said that I will work on a professional development contribution...still not too sure how much to do...just start something and perhaps continue it later --LeRoy Hill 06:47, 11 February 2010 (UTC) (: Hi LeRoy, we don't hold you the exact date, but you should have an idea of when you might be able to complete it. I know life can get very busy. Warm wishes --Patricia Schlicht 22:16, 12 February 2010 (UTC)) This is a really cool tool for reflection -- 07:08, 11 February 2010 (UTC)--LeRoy Hill, CEN still playing with the signature feature --LeRoy Hill, CENleRoyh 07:23, 11 February 2010 (UTC) still still playing ... --LeRoy Hill, CEN 07:27, 11 February 2010 (UTC) I am certified...take that...I tell you this is really good stuff...hope to do more when I get some more time --LeRoy Hill, CEN 23:14, 13 February 2010 (UTC) I like the fact that there is a template for reflection...and yes I agree wiki editing can become addictive.-- LeRoy Hill, CEN 01:22, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
