Welcome to the learning community designed and managed by Ms. Rita Callahan, instuctor of economics and mathematics. Most of you are current or former students from my classes. I trust you will enjoy this attempt to connect our studies to the real world. From time to time I will make observations on my experiences and things I read. I hope you will comment and add your observations as well.
There is much to learn form others, especially those whose experiences may differ from our own. As I mention elsewhere in this blog, this is my attempt to incorporate 21st century learning formats into the educational experience of my students. Perhaps this will invite some interesting discussions.

Paul Krugman
Professor Krugman had a link to this video on his blog.
Since I enjoy reading his commentary in the New York Times, I felt compelled to post this biographical video on my blog.
A 1970 graduate (BA math education)of the University of Delaware, I continued immediately to Virginia Tech where I completed a MA in economics. Later, in the 21st century I took 19 credit hours of math education at the master's level online from Florida State.
I have worked in public school education, community college education, small business (sales), municipal government (analysis), large multinational corporation (home office support, family business franchise (sales)and currently in for-profit higher education.
