My duties include teaching and designing half-courses for the University Teaching Certificate, conducting and facilitating several workshops each year and developing supplementary documentation. Additionally, I present at conferences either by myself or with colleagues, while developing local, provincial and national collaborations. I also have mentored participants registered in the University Teaching Certificate to support their efforts to complete the certificate. I am involved with occasional research projects that explore the impact of technologies in pedagogy, the effectiveness of current campus technologies or current trends.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_905\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-905\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-905  \" title=\"Lorie\" src=\"http:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/1-300x179.jpg\" alt=\"Lorie by bench dedicated to students with learning disabilities\" width=\"240\" height=\"143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/1-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/1.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-905\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lorie behind bench she dedicated for the &#8220;Reaching Your Potential&#8221; scholarship.\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I <em>love<\/em> what I do!<\/p>\n<p>I have a passion for levelling the playing field for learners by adopting and implementing the appropriate technologies, so everyone can reach their potential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a Learning Technologies Educational Consultant for the University of Windsor.\u00a0 I proudly work in the Centre for Teaching and Learning with a staff that is loaded with geniuses, experts and humorists, where every day is a new adventure.\u00a0 Our campus hosts some world-class teachers and researchers and I am honoured to work among &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/592"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=592"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/592\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1184,"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/592\/revisions\/1184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ctl2.uwindsor.ca\/lorie\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
