Greetings and welcome!!

Feeling connected to each other at a distance can be difficult, however connecting to your instructor and fellow classmates is just as important as connecting with course material. We learn from text, we learn from our instructors and we learn from each other.

The goal of this site is to give you some information about who I am both professionally and personally. It is a work in progress, and as a note of that- the research page and interest page haven't progressed far enough to go live yet! <grin>

I welcome comments, feedback and connection!

Take a look at some exciting ventures we are undertaking:

• KJ Article: UMA Reaches Across the Pacific
• Guest BLOG: UMA Distance Ed in Micronesia
  Part I & Part II
• BLog interview with "VERY" Distant Learners (UMA ILS Students)

Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way. And don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines.
