About Me

Welcome to my online portfolio! My name is John Root, I am currently in my last semester of Graduate school at SUNY Potsdam in the Educational Technology Specialist program. I am also a 7-12 Technology Education Teacher at Brushton-Moira Central School. I teach Introduction to Technology, Drafting and Design for Production, Technicial Drafting, Computer Aided Drafting, Production Systems, Photography I and II, and co-teach Forestry and Agriculture. The majority of the technology utilized within the classes I teach is, welding and metal working equipment. 

 

I was born and raised in Massena, NY (10 minutes from the border of Canada).  I graduated from Massena Central High School in 2006. I also graduated from Seaway Area Technical Center with a 1 year vocational certificate in Building Trades in 2006. Upon graduation from high school I had an interest to work with my hands and be able to share my experiences with others, so I attended SUNY Oswego and enrolled in their Technology Education program. I graduated from SUNY Oswego in the fall of 2010 with my Bachelors degree in Education. I have 5 years teaching experience in Charles County Maryland, Peru Central School in Peru, NY and I have settled in Brushton-Moira Central School.  With my Master's Degree in Educational Technology, I hope to broaden my educational background and gain employment as an Educational Technology Specialist.
