Bio:
Jimmy
started his career in education as a high school math teacher in
Valdosta, Georgia. He then moved to Augusta and continued
teaching high school math, teaching everything from basic level
math to AP Calculus. Jimmy also served three years as the
mathematics department chair before leaving the classroom to
become a state Instructional Technology Specialist at one of
thirteen GaDOE Educational Technology Training Centers (ETTC)
located around the state. He is currently the Director of the
ETTC housed at the National Science Center in Augusta, Georgia
where he has continued to work to help systems, schools,
administrators, and teachers infuse technology into the teaching
and learning process. Jimmy’s philosophy is simple: technology
can improve instruction, engage students, and accelerate student
achievement.
"Mathematics is the alphabet with which God has
written the universe." Galileo Galilei
"If I can't learn the way you teach, then teach
the way I learn." Anonymous
