This was a 50% teaching / 50% Tech Integrationalist role. In addition to teaching the Computer Science classes for Early Years to Key Stage 2 classes, I was also responsible for computer maintenance and support and for staff training in Ed Tech.
I was one of two administrators for our Google Apps for Education workspace. Specifically, I was responsible for handling student accounts during our Chromebook rollout. I also managed Chrome extensions and other components. During this time, I received the Google Certified Admin Level 2 certification.
I was tasked with writing our proposal for a one-to-one Chromebook program and then for implementing the rollout once it was done. I selected the Chromebooks, considering budgetary and maintenance considerations, I then drafted a proposal for our business and administration team. Finally, when they arrived, I was responsible for imaging them, setting them up, training teachers on their use, and maintaining them when students had issues.
I led multiple teacher trainings on Google tools ranging from Chromebooks to Gmail to Google Docs, including workshops to help teachers prepare for their Google Certified Educator level 2 certifications. During this time, two of my presentations to staff were turned into presentations at the Google AppSummit conference.
