Brad+B.

My name is Brad Bower and I am a sixth grade science teacher. I love technology, and I always want to incorporate more of it into my lessons, but I always go back to what I know. I hope this class gives me tools and research that I can use to make using technology "what I know", and incorporate it into my lessons. Facts:
 * I have a two year old daughter and my wife and I are expecting another little girl in May. I will be outmatched and overruled 3:1 for the foreseable future.
 * I like to stay active, basketball, running, softball, kickball, just to name a few.
 * My favorite "old school/new school" game is the Madden football series. I am a huge NFL and video game fan so naturally I enjoy this series of game. The scam is that they come out with a new game with few upgrades every year but I continue to purchase it.
 * I also enjoy the guitar hero and rock band games. There is nothing like a group of untalented people joining together to make great music.
