I am a second year student at the CUNY Graduate Center studying Urban Education Policy and Interactive Technology and Pedagogy. Before going back to school, I taught high school English for five years at a transfer school in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. While I miss the classroom, I have a fellowship through the Graduate Center to work with teachers and principals in middle and high schools in Brooklyn as a technology consultant - this helps me keep in touch with the interests and concerns of public school students and teachers - the reason and motivation for my academic work. Recently I have been studying and researching the impact of copyright law on the creation and distribution of online educational material and software.
