Information Technology
I once again found myself working with technology while pursuing my masters degree is School Library Media Science. At the time I worked as the library resources assistant at Hawaii Pacific Universities Meader. During the working day I was responsible for maintaining computer equipment, running database checks and communicating with database vendors. During my classes I learned about free web 2.0 tools like, weebly, voice thread and prezi. Later during my practicum I worked with educational software programs like achieve 3000 and conducted database instruction with gifted high school students.
