TIMAC Application: [|MichaelAaronTIMACapp.pdf]

Administrator's focus:
Beaumont Adult School has made a determined effort to integrate technology through out all of our instructional programs. All ESL and ABE/ASE classes are scheduled for weekly time in the schools computer lab and all traditional classroom instructed sections have a corresponding distance learning section to allow all students the opportunity to receive "blended" instruction in pursuit of their educational goals. Mike is, currently, our only full-time instructor outside of our CTE programs and, as such, we have programed additional hours into his salary to allow for his participation in TIMAC as well as his mentoring of other staff members. As were are currently expanding our distance learning efforts into all instructional programs, we would particularly like Mike to mentor other instructors in expanding the uses of technology in providing distance learning materials to our students.

Three interesting facts: 1. I'm a Jewish-German married to a woman of Mexican Spanish descent. 2. I know Huichol, an Indian dialect from Mexico. 3. I'm an ordained minister and the president of a non-profit corporation.

This link will take you to my new WebQuest!!! It's an ESL Workforce Skills project that includes problem-solving and critical thinking skills! Take a look at it! I share it to let you know that what you have taught and encouraged me to do is at work in my teaching.
