Hi there! My name is Maryjo Green. I live (and work) in the Edmonds School District in Edmonds, WA. I currently am a K-6 Substitute Teacher, but most recently had a long-term substitute position in 1st Grade, so that’s the grade I’ll use for the purposes of this training. 
I got my Master’s in Teaching in Technology…many, many years ago. This is my entry into learning what I feel are some very important skills in today’s classrooms and I hope to be able to apply what I learn here in my own classroom soon!
Hello everyone,
My name is Marcos Alba and I am a Special Education teacher in LAUSD, California. I work with students with moderate-to-severe disabilities and I have been teaching for the past 6 years at the same school site. The Computer Science Fundamentals course has been very fun and I can’t wait to start exploring a new course with my students as lead learner. The concept of being a lead learner is like a load off of my shoulders because this role allows me to learn along with my students and not have to be an expert in computer science. I have a fun journey ahead!
