Arlington County’s Kenmore Middle School was named the first-ever SMART Showcase School of the Year for its high-tech classrooms equipped with SMART boards, iPads, cameras and much more. The man to thank? Goodman, who has been Kenmore’s instructional technology coordinator for 13 years. Schools need a lot of things these days. Why is technology a priority for you?

Daniel Haidle My undergraduate degree is in technology education, and I have a master’s degree in instructional technology. I think the students that we have nowadays are native learners. These students don’t go a day without the Internet. As educators, we have to adapt to that role. I feel like it’s my role at Kenmore to train teachers to be able to effectively communicate through technology with these students.
