How can you be part of the journey? Margaret Allen, Education Business Development Manager, Renaissance LearningMargaret is an experienced primary school teacher. As an early adopter and evangelist of interactive whiteboard technology she travelled to the US, Europe and the Middle East working with teachers in the application of ICT to support teaching and learning. Her aim is to recognise the strength of primary school teachers by offering them something which will enhance children’s education, meet the needs of the classroom, and realise the full potential of technology across the curriculum. As part of today’s multi-media environment she believes Accelerated Reader has the ability to support readers at all levels and offer teachers an insight into their comprehension, as well as offering clear paths of development. |
