"My name is Carolyn Starkey (some of you may know me as “JoJo”), and I would like to offer you the opportunity to become part of a learning community without ever leaving your home. Best of all - - it is FREE! I am one of the facilitators for the Reading First online course that is being offered through Alabama's newest professional development initiative, eLearning Alabama. I am a big fan of online learning, and I look forward to working with you in this course! " - Carolyn Starkey

“I have been able to address individual needs for each student using the material and resources from this workshop. I have also been able to more accurately assess individual student progress, rather than whole group progress, and plan accordingly.” - Alabama Classroom Teacher

“Using what I learned in the workshop and including new technology, I was able to involve every student in classroom activities.” - Alabama Classroom Teacher

"E-learning’s professional development course “Blogs, Podcasts, Wikis, and Skypes,” has made technology not only a useful tool in the classroom but a fun one as well. I have created blogs and a wikispace for library media specialists to share ideas, as well as for students to post book reviews and other interesting information or resources available in their library. " -Kassie Millwood, Library Media Specialist, Albertville, AL
