*This ePortfolio is to fulfill the requirements of Project 4 of my EDTC 6340 class.

Introduction

Hello my name is Raquel Cantu.  I work as an Instructional Technology Specialist with the "---" Independent School District.  As an IT specialist, we have the job of studying and learning any new hardware and software that is purchased by the district.  After learning how to use the software/hardware we are in charge of presenting and training teachers and administrators on how to integrate it into their classrooms. 

I am currently enrolled as a Distance Learning Student with the University of Texas Brownsville.  I am working on obtaining my Masters in Educational Technology. 

I earned my Bachelors Degree from the University of Texas Pan American as an Interdisciplinary Teacher with a minor in Bilingual Education.  I also have an Associates Degree from South Texas College as a Networking Specialist.  I was an Elementary teacher for 10 years (1st and 2nd grade) before deciding that I wanted to do something more within the educational field, thus began my career as an IT Specialist.

In this e-portfolio, you will find artifacts and documentation supporting my growth through the Educational Technology program at the University of Texas at Brownsville.
