Greetings!My name is Shannon O’Connell and I recently received my BA from Empire State College.
This is me and my father at graduation this past spring.
I enjoy an array of outdoor activities including hiking, boating, kayaking, traveling and camping.
My content area within the MAT program is Earth Science.
Professionally speaking, I was previously in the housing market designing and selling log homes…that is, until the fall of the market around 2008.
It was at that time I decided to return to my passion of Art and Earth science and complete my BA through Empire State College.
I have had many inspiring instructors that led me to the desired field of teaching.
Learning
Modeling
Real world & hands-on
experiences
Social interaction
and reciprocating conversations
Patience, understandin
g and persistence
Communication
Continuing education

Understanding the course outline and what is needed to succeed is important stuff!
Thus far, I have found this class to be very different from my other classes!
Here’s what I look like as an avatar!
After much, much practice, I learned how to speak so you all can hear me!
I also made sure I will be able to hear all of you through testing my listening.
This is me learning how to find friends who are also visiting the island.
Then, I was off to discover the ISLAND!!!
I finally found a friend on the island, but she appeared to be resting.
Then I came across our cool Science A-Frame building!
What a great view of the night stars from the A-Frame building and neighboring dome-roof pods!
I found task boards that I’m sure we’ll be revisiting!
I don’t want to get ahead of myself here… so I am going to wish you all good luck and safe travels within our Teaching and Learning course!
