And suddenly, it’s summer. My efforts to update at least once a month are going downhill fast. I’m at the Summer Faculty Institute, at UD, learning about my online presence. So this is it, my online presence!

My latest article at RTDNA asks that question.

Very happy to announce that my students from Spring 2013 created a documentary that is nominated for a College Production Award from the Mid-Atlantic Emmy Chapter.

Yeah, it’s not ACTUALLY an Emmy, so I can’t call it that… but hey, pretty close! I had nominations as a professional journalist, so it’s so cool that my students are just as good!

The ceremony is on my birthday, so what a great present if we win!

Since this is my site, I will take the opportunity to brag on myself.  I am proud to be a first-place award winner for faculty advising, from the Delaware Press Association. I went on to national competition, and won second place from the National Association of Press Women as faculty adviser for a student media publication!

I’m having a wonderful week at the University of Delaware’s Summer Faculty Institute. I love learning new things and finding out about new apps that can help me teach and learn.

No, not to the family. To this site! I’ve added some brief bios to my titles of Professor, Journalist and Mother.

I plan to add pictures and more stuff. Maybe this summer, when I have more time.

Yeah, right.

So here is my place in the digital world. My spot to present who I am. So why can’t I think of a thing to write?? I have so much I want to do with this turf, and can’t seem to get there.

A work in progress, as am I.
