Kevin Amboe has created this space and moderates this wiki.

He is very interested in teaching and learning with technology. He has been interested in technology since his dad brought home a computer from work. It was from BCTel and was essentially a suitcase with a power cord. The front folded down to reveal a 4x4 screen and keyboard. I remember getting to use it on the dining room table and play 'artillery.'

While Kevin doesn't meet the 1988 birth year to be a Digital Native (term coined by Marc Prensky), he is a proficient Digital Immigrant. His accent is well hidden.

For the past 3 years he has worked at the Surrey School District Curriculum and Instructional Services Centre. While the job title has changed from Elementary ICT Helping Teacher to District Information and Media Literacy Coordinator.

While our district has had an understanding to move forward toward technology integration, we did not have a clear vision to drive towards. Working with our team at CISC, we developed the Information and Media Literacy capacities.
