Dr. Kathryn Lee is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Curriculum & Instruction at Texas State University-San Marcos and teaches online graduate courses in the secondary education program.
Dr. Kathryn Lee is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Curriculum & Instruction at Texas State University-San Marcos. She has been in education and the mental health field in Texas for over 25 years. Her experience as a secondary school teacher, a clinical therapist, and a school counselor for both elementary and secondary students underpins her basic philosophy that we must be responsive to individual student needs in the classroom. Her current emphasis as a teacher educator is preparing preservice and practicing teachers to be empathic and responsive to all students' needs, including those who have been routinely marginalized because of their ethnicity, language, gender, socioeconomic status, religious belief, disability, and/or sexual orientation. Dr. Lee's primary research interest lies in investigating instructional strategies best suited to meet the educational needs of an increasingly diverse student population, including adult online learners. Her research has the added benefit of informing and improving her own teaching practice while representing what she believes is a valuable contribution to the field.

Dr. Niem Huynh is of Chinese descent, born in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon), Viet Nam. Due to the political unrest, her family departed and was kindly accepted by Canada. She grew up in Toronto, Ontario, and enjoyed a multicultural atmosphere. In her undergraduate studies, she trained to become a high school geography and biology teacher, but graduate school changed her life course. Her research interests stem from inspirational teaching moments in the classroom. Currently, Dr. Huynh is excited to explore geography learning (e.g., what geospatial concepts should be taught when and how) and the process of problem solving with technology (GIS). A secondary research interest has roots from her Master's thesis, how cognitive processing might be illuminated by sequence of analysis of sketch map creation. For more information on her teaching and research activities, please visit: http://uweb.txstate.edu/~nh19/index.html

I have been teaching at history at the college level since 1992. I moved into teaching using technology in the late 1990s when I discovered high speed internet. Prior to utilizing course management software such as Blackboard and Sakai, I taught myself how to build webpages and posted information on open access websites. I am currently the lone representative in my department who offers online courses. Along with teaching the online surveys of US history to freshman, I teach a methods course for pre-service social studies teachers and I coordinate professional development workshops for public school teachers.
