Lynn Lary, Lane ESD

Eugene, OR 97402, US
The Lane ESD provides a variety of services to Lane County Schools. As the
instructional technology specialist, I get to work with teachers from all over the county. It is a fun and rewarding job.
Because I travel to many different schools, I take lots of equipment with me, which I generally have to pack and unpack with each trip. As a result I have adopted Todd Hamilton's idea of creating and using a staff development toolbox. I call my toolbox,
Toolbox 2.0 which is always packed and ready to go.
