I worked as a computer business applications software analyst, designer, project leader, and director of data processing in industry from 1965 to 1978. After getting my B.A. and M.A. from UCLA, I taught computer information systems, systems design, & automated accounting at the community college and university level. At the same time I worked as a consultant with both large and small companies; selecting and installing hardware, implementing accounting systems, and training users. I have also done trouble-shooting on large and small computer and automated accounting systems. I received my PhD from the School of Education in June, 2000; focusing on the design, development and delivery of web courses, as well as learning theory, and the impact of computers on the learning environment.

I have been an educator for 34 years. I taught secondary and middle level English language arts for 26 years before coming to Oregon State University in 1993 as the field supervisor for the Master of Arts in Teaching in English Education. Now I teach methods courses, lead seminars, and coordinate the licensure program for English Language Arts in the School of Education. I am particularly interested in project-based learning, collaborative teaching, and professional development for in-service teachers. I am excited by the challenges of teaching and learning in a standards-based environment.
