Background

About Robert Gordon

I am career educator who has worked in many connected capacities such as: • an EAP instructor (over 10 years of experience working in a university environment), • a literature and film instructor with over 10 years at the university and college level), and • an Education Technology expert with over 10 years’ experience both teaching and coaching. My pedagogic interests include technological affordances, learner psychology, autonomous learning, project-based learning, learning strategies, differentiated learning, and affected teaching/motivation. My primary task as a teacher is always to enhance learning as much as possible as I view education to be amongst the greatest gifts one can develop within oneself. I try to motivate my students to want to learn, and then I try to give them the tools so that they can continue to learn on their own. As such, I am a lifelong learner who continues to seek to grow every day, as an educator, as a lover of the word and its various artforms, and as a human being who can find fascination in every corner.
