Just listening to the intro - Sheila, I did the “tech instructor” job at Nortwestern School of Law (now Lewis and Clark Law School) in Portland Or., for three years, and it was a lot of fun. I got to teach classes on how to use in-class technology, PowerPoint, projectors and DVD players and all kinds of fun stuff. In fact, I think the on-line documentation I wrote for their tech-heavy classrooms is still up at the school’s website. So, schools are doing this, even higher education schools, and I hope that information is helpful as you sell the position to your district/school administrators.
