Hello fellow classmates in ETEC 501

Hello ETEC 501 classmates and Professor

My name is Celeste Galipeau-Woods and I am excited to begin our learning journey through the world of e-learning.

I am currently finishing up my Master's degree and teaching credential program in Special Education at CSUSB and I am taking this class to learn more about the e-learning environment because I believe distance learning is quite beneficial to all students, in particular, for students with disabilities since I believe the on-line environemt helps to further breakdown learning barriers, opening up a more level playing field for all students since the internet opens the world to all with just one click!

Currently I work as an RTI in home tutor for LAUSD a.nd also as a graduate assistant in the departmant of Educational Psychology. I am married and have been living with Multiple Sclerosis for over 20 years so everyday I wake up healthy and able to walk, is a good day to me!

Teaching is a gift we are fortunate to share and I really look forward to working with everyone throughout the Spring 2010 quarter and hope to make some meaningful contacts and collaborations.

Take Care
Celeste Galipeau-Woods

Celeste,
Welcome to the class! I agree with you on that technology can be very helpful for students with disabilities. Marrying technology to your degree in special education would be a great decision.
Keep up the good work!
