A Little Bit of Me

My name is Chris Brist.  I have been happily married to Naomi for 17 years , I am a father of two (Olivia 14 - Michael 12), and now I am a Media Specialist.  I enjoy meeting new people and helping them with whatever they may need.  Nothing beats a face to face conversation.  I like the nuances of body language, the inflection in a voice, and a person's tone when they talk.  In fact, I used to sit in the mall with my grandmother just to watch people.  You can learn a lot about people and relationships just by watching them.  I have to say it was more fun with Grandma.  I miss our time together.  Anyway...because of this, I have had a hard time embracing blogging and other forms of social media.  However, I am going to wade deeper into the pool of social media this summer.  I have listed three goals below that I hope will help ease me into the deeper water.

Goal 1 - To embrace tools such as blogs, PLNs, and Social Media in an effort to enhance my teaching.
Goal 2 - Expend my knowledge base so that I am a better resource for the staff and students at my school.
Goal 3 - Enjoy learning new things with a group of new people. 

Wish me luck!
