This course site is open to anyone.  Feel free to follow along & learn with my students during the semester. However, I would really appreciate knowing what you find useful, what resources I should add or get rid of and of course your general comments.  I would like to keep growing and improving this class.

Thanks, just email comments to: cyndidk@ksu.edu

This course is a OPEN to anyone!

I am a faculty member and the Education Technology Integration Coordinator for the Kansas State University College of Education. I am an educational futurist who works to leverage technology for the benefit of learners. I am an educator, digital storyteller, blogger and digital change agent, artist and friend. I address a range of topics related to technology integration, distance learning, education, business and twenty-first century literacy. I am a catalyst for creative engagement and collaborative learning. Additionally, I am an experienced graphic designer, website designer, author and technology consultant. I have written and facilitated over $850,000 in technology grants in Kansas.


Bear in mind, I am not a geek/techie. I know many geek/techies, and I am absolutely NOT one of them. Geek/Techies are excited by creating the technology. I am excited by what that technology can do and about discovering the possibilities. Technology is changing the way we do business, teach, and learn, in the 21st century, I am a part of that change.

You are encouraged to be a knowledge seeker rather than a  knowledge meeter, i.e., you need to add education to your course rather than add a course to your education.  This course is about discovery & possibilities!
