About Us

Picture
Hi my name is Emily Pilotte! I am a sophomore at the University of South Alabama in Mobile, Alabama, and I am a secondary education English/language arts major. My passion and main focus as an aspiring teacher is to make reading fun again! In this day and age of cell phones and Facebook, so many kids just don't read (reading Twitter updates doesn't count). My goal is to bring back the love of reading to my students. I love reading (of course), enjoying the great outdoors, and spending time with my family and friends. I am also a South Alabama Diamond Girl where I support Jaguar Baseball! I am co-creator of this site with Josh King. We did this site as our final project in EDM 310, a class that taught us how to become technologically literate teachers. We also thought it would be a good idea to make this an on-going project. Feel free to go check out my class blog! Follow me on twitter @emilypilotte.

I'm Josh King, an ongoing learner currently attending the University of South Alabama.  I'm aspiring to be a science educator! I love drums, silly humor, interesting facts, and life...

Pretty much I've always been engaged by technology, and now I'm striving to learn modern teaching methods using the tools that are available today.  I am extremely interested in understanding what engages us and how teachers can motivate people to become engaged learners.
