Gwyneth Jones

Gwyneth Jones pictureGwyneth's goal has been to encourage math and science teachers to utilize the resources found in the library media center of her school, and to provide them with innovative ways to encourage students' enthusiasm for their own learning. Whether using video, the Internet, CD-ROMs, or traditional research resources, Gwyneth helps her fellow teachers and students explore a variety of ways to enliven the curriculum. She believes that when students have a sense of ownership about what they learn and how the knowledge is gained, learning has true value and meaning for them.

The Web site Gwyneth designed for the 2000 MPT NTTI, Internet Integration: a Jump Start, has won the coveted A+ Education site from Eduhound.com. She also presented an Internet workshop at the MPT 2000 BioHealth Link: Questions of Cancer Summer Institute, held at the Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health.

Gwyneth left a career in advertising, public relations, and marketing nearly nine years ago to pursue a career in technology education. She says, "I love it and I've never looked back!" She now uses the communication skills she gained in the business world to communicate her love of research and information gathering, reading, and technology with her students.
