= __ **Welcome to Wade Dellow's E-Portfolio** __ =

= This e-portfolio is designed to showcase the integration of computer technology in the classroom. = Technology has been part of my life since 1996 and before. In 1996 I started attending Buffalo State College in pursuit of a Bachelor of Science degree in the area of Technology Education. I graduated in 1999 and was hired to fill a technology education position at Brocton Central School, where I was employed for 10 years. During this time period I returned to college part time and earned a Masters degree in 2004 from Fredonia State University and Buffalo State College in the area of Educational Computing and Independent Studies in Secondary education. I have since return to graduate studies full time at Fredonia State University in pursuit of a second cirtification in the area of Special Education (5 - 9 generalized SP) and a second masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I will graduate in the spring of 2010 and will then return to the teaching profession in either Technology Education or Special Education.  During the past 10 years as a technology education teacher, all of the various course in which I have taught have revolved around the use of technology. Particularly in the use of multi media technology in regards to computer technology. As technology continues to change teachers need to educate themselves so that they may educate their students in the best ways possible. This is why I chose to take the course EDU 528 as an elective at Fredonia State University. During the time spent in this course I was introduced to web 2.0 technologies and various ways to integrate new technologies into my lesson plans. Computer technology is rapidly changing or evolving at a consistently increasing rate change. As a result of these changes, I have created this e-portfolio to show case my knowledge in the area of computer technology and demonstrate I have meet the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards and Performance Indicators for Teacher (NETS-T). As technology changes I will continue to add to my "Tool Box" and use this e-portfolio to display my increasing knowledge of the use of technology in the classroom.
