After my sudden and unexpected departure from blogging in 2007, I finally am able to revive my blog, albeit under a slightly different name. I never intended to just disappear from the blogosphere and the community I was developing, but I never seemed to find the time to "pen" that parting post. My time has been consumed by my goal of earning a PhD - a dream that is soon to be a reality. My dissertation, titled The Examination of the Relationship of Digital Literacy and Student Achievement in Texas Elementary Schools has been submitted to my committee, and now I wait to go before them to defend my research
The fact that I only have one more $450+ payment to the university is almost as exciting as the doctoral cap, gown, and hood that arrived in the mail yesterday. I think that my wife is a bit jealous because my gown has University of Oklahoma crimson felt on it while the one she bought almost seven years ago is jet black. Perhaps it is a little silly, but I cannot wait until the day that one of my wife's students calls the house asking for Dr. Brown and I get to say "speaking" knowing full well that they don't mean me!
My dissertation defense is upcoming - so I won't be posting here very much before then, but I am already stocking up on things I want to talk about in the world of educational technology and its administration.
