Self-introductions

[Cleo Lu]

Hi everyone, 

It was nice meeting you all. My name is Cleo Lu. I have been teaching Chinese language and culture at college level for over 10 years. I am interested in taking this course because I am working on a chapter about Chinese architecture in transition. This is for a middle school Social Studies curriculum I am developing together with the other K-16 teachers. I am excited to learn a lot more about East Asian architecture and urbanism throughout this course.

I  am Candace Slobodnik, Instructional Lead Teacher at Crossland High School, Science Technology and Advanced Trades in Temple Hills, Prince George's County, Maryland.  We are the southern hub for CTE in our large district; our student demographics include about 70% African American and 30% Latino students.  Our school is a "Green School" and among our staff we have a group dedicated the study of climate change and preservation. 

I am interested in this course as part of our school's interdisciplinary approach to educating students who are college and career ready.  I have been a member of NCTA for about 10 years and am looking forward to collaborating with and learning from educators around the globe to gather new resources and to learn new strategies that I will share with our staff.

Hi, folks-  It was nice to ZOOM-meet you last week.

I am terible with tech-- it took me this long to finally find the correct password and join officially.

I am waiting to hear if enough students have registered for my EAST ASIA course in order for it to be offered next semester. I teach history and economics at Maryvale Preparatory School (for high school girls) in suburban Maryland, north of Baltimore.

[Daniel Hanna]

Hello everyone, 

My name is Daniel Hanna and I am a second year teacher at LAUSD. I work at John F. Kennedy High School where I teach biology in the Architecture/Digital Design/Film Making Magnet. I chose to participate in this course because it would be of great value to theme my science course with some of the topics covered in the seminars. I heard about this course from a colleague who was also interested in architecture and how we could theme a unit based on real life examples. I hope to be able to contribute to our discussions and learn from all of you!
