I am an educational technologist, training facilitator and instructional  experience designer, Gaggie and happily living in Hogsback, South Africa.

My passion is getting teachers to use ICT/social media for teaching and learning and helping people overcoming their fear of technology in a fun way. I facilitate training (ICT/social media) and develop materials and courses for schools, organisations, the Department of Education and for general use online in blended and e and m-learning scenarios.

I maintain, facilitate and are involved in various online communities of practice. I also indulge in a few blogs and wikis. If you want to join me in/on a few of my other spaces, feel free….
