\"Keith<\/a>Hello! My name is Keith Rowley. I am a self-professed “software geek.” That is, I love to learn my way around new software, both online web-based apps, and locally-installed, usually more-robust desktop applications.<\/p>\n

I have been teaching Business Technology and Information Technology classes in the IBIT<\/a> division of Bellevue College<\/a> in Washington state since 2007. I also am an educational technologist with the college’s eLearning<\/a> team, and in that capacity I do faculty technology support in both one-on-one and workshop situations.<\/p>\n

Most of the classes I teach are in the IBEST<\/a> program, which is nationally-renowned for its innovative approach to jump-starting developmental-education students into college-level and professional\/vocational coursework. One of the unique characteristics of the IBEST model is that classes are team-taught. I love working with teaching partners, as it’s great being able to bounce ideas off of another person.<\/p>\n

I have also taught in the Year Up<\/a> program, in a partnership between Bellevue College and this great non-profit that gets 18-24 year old urban youth fast-tracked into internships and, hopefully, careers.<\/p>\n

I served as IBIT adjunct representative on the\u00a0Faculty Council<\/a> during the first three years of the college’s governance system.<\/p>\n

Oh yeah, I also teach a few business technology classes at the Lake Washington Institute of Technology<\/a> in Kirkland, WA.<\/p>\n

When not on campus (or otherwise piddling about on computers), I’m usually listening to or making my own music<\/a>, or reading\/watching science fiction. Or eating. Or sleeping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
