Guest Information:

Since 2011, John has worked with schools around the world, providing practical, hands-on professional development and technology integration support. He began his educational journey as a high school science teacher exploring the use of Google Docs and Wikis with ninth grade students. John eventually became a high school principal and helped his school launch one of the first 1:1 ipad programs in the country. When the Chromebook made it’s appearance in 2011, he was convinced it was the perfect device for the classroom. John has spent years exploring, testing, listening, and watching the use of Chromebooks in classrooms. This research led to his first book, The Chromebook Classroom, which was released in 2016. In 2014 John started the Google Certification Academy, a program that helps educators earn their Google Certification. A few years later I added the Google Admin Bootcamp to help IT directors effectively manage the technical aspects of Chromebooks and Google Workspace for Education.
