As a science teacher, I learned that I am not always right; that I can learn from my students as much as they can learn from me; and that we can achieve and gain more when working collaboratively with other teachers and students.
As a science coordinator at a technology-enhanced school with one-to-one laptop environment, I experienced first-hand the importance of pedagogical knowledge for the implementation of educational technology beyond the glorified chalk-and-talk PowerPoint lectures.
As a PhD student, I understood the value of evidence-based practices and learned about the importance of assessing the quality of educational research prior to endorsing the findings as not all research qualifies as highly reliable and valid.
As a university faculty member and higher education leader, I experienced the significance of change management and acquired a stronger appreciation for human performance technology and the role of the human factor in any transformational process.

A new start, with new pages to be written, so it is really work in progress
