Welcome to the "Eduporium Featured Educator” series! Each month, we are going to be highlighting the work of one dedicated educator who is using EdTech to empower students. We are so excited to share their stories and their work with you! We hope it will give more educators encouragement to try something new and are very excited to get this underway with our first teacher—someone we have known for quite a while—Gaby Richard-Harrington.

Q & A:
What are some of your favorite tech tools?
I like Google Apps for Education. I am a Photoshop user. I love the tools from TextHelp and Scratch is amazing!
What advice would you give to people just starting out with implementing EdTech?
I would say start small and do something new each month. It is really hard to keep pace with new tools. Try things! Don't get attached to tools. Replace something old with something better instead of always adding. Always have an exit strategy.
What interests you most about Eduporium?
I love the origins of Eduporium. The love of learning is growing a wonderful EdTech business that benefits kids and the company. It's a win-win!
