RICHARD STYNER'S DIGITAL PORTFOLIO FOR EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY

This is a website to show off my qualifications to become your next 21st Century
Teaching and Learning expert! First a bit about my educational background. I
received my Bachelor of Science degree in biology with a psychology minor at 
Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln Nebraska. After working for a few years
as a biologist, I realized that I really wanted to teach. I received a Master of
Arts in Teaching Biology from Brown University in Providence Rhode Island. There
I studied with an emphasis on progressive, experiential-based education. I
decided to teach at a diverse urban high school in the Bay Area, and started at
San Leandro High School, where I taught for the next 17 years. Most recently, I
completed my Master of Science degree in Educational Technology at California
State University.

Initially, I started off teaching integrated science. It was a fledgling
program, and I wrote all of my own curriculum. After teaching for two years, I
became concerned with the lack of technology training at the school, so another
teacher and I wrote and proposed a course in computer science. I had previously
worked as a computer technician, and have always been very strong with
computers. The program was initially small, and I served a key role in the
writing and implementation of the Digital High School grant that year, which
greatly increased the number of computers and wired the school for the internet.

The computer science program continued to grow, and by the time I left,
included Introduction to Computers, Intermediate Computers and Advanced
Placement Computer Science. I left in 2013 when the opportunity arose to use my
computer skills to work for my brother as his Director of Marketing and Social
Media at Golden Eagle Properties, where I designed and coded web pages for the
business for them and developed the company SEO plan. During my time there, I
was able to promote the web page to the top of google searches, and recruit many
real estate agents, increasing the company size for 32 to 65 agents within a
year.

I am now ready to renter the educational field with renewed passion for
education. I have always been a firm believer in progressive teaching techniques
and have been very innovative in implementing these in my classroom. As
computers and internet connected devices have become available to more and more
students, progressive techniques and individualized instruction have become
available in ways we could only dream of before. Finally the dreams of such
luminaries as Vygotski, Dewey and Sizer have begun to come to fruition.

I now look forward to promoting progressive educational techniques and
overseeing the transformation of the learning to a 21st century model through
the increased use and implementation of technology.


THIS PORTFOLIO

The purpose of this site is to acquaint the reader with my qualifications and
show examples of my work so far. I designed and coded the HTML and CSS for this
page from scratch. I hope it is informative to you!


A WORD ABOUT NAVIGATING THE SITE

My educational work has been divided up by ISTE standards for 21st century
classrooms. These pages include a description of the standard, and samples of
the work I have done at the bottom of each page.
