I direct the research program at a public community college and have an interest in the Learner-Centered Assessment on College Campuses -- Shifting the Focus from Teaching to Learning. Boston, Allyn and Bacon.)

Courses and learning activities can be assessed via diverse mechanisms, such as pre- and post-tests, written assignments with rubrics, exams, surveys, and capstone or other comprehensive experiences documented with portfolios. Graded assessment of a student's performance regarding learning objectives is sometimes referred to as Evaluation or Summative Evaluation.

I am an administrator and teacher, having lived and worked in Santa Cruz, California since 1986. I have worked as a Technology Coordinator at the county and regional level, and have become more and more convinced that community building and learning using electronic tools is a future for K-12 education. My work now, managing the Community Learning Environment (Sakai describes itself as a "Collaboration and Learning Environment" (CLE). A CLE is an environment where professors can prepare and deliver courses, communicate, and collaborate with their students, It can also support ad hoc group collaboration, electronic portfolios, and research collaboration. In education, the most common term to describe the teaching and learning part of this tool set is "Learning Management System" (LMS).">CLE) for the New Teacher Center, is helping me focus my interest in supporting educational leaders, new teachers and new administrators while modeling effective use of new tools in educational settings for the benefit of students and the community at large.

Born in Mexico City, Mexico. BS in Mathematics from the Autonomous Metropolitan University. MS in Mathematics and Ph.D in Mathematics from Claremont Graduate University. Postdoctoral fellow at the Computational Molecular Biology and Bioinformatics of the University of Southern California 2003-2006.
Research Associate at the National Institute of Genomic Medicine 2006 to date. Adjunct Faculty at the School of Mathematical Sciences - Claremont Graduate University 2003- present. I taught for 3 years while I was a postdoctoral fellow at USC. Then from Mexico I have been teaching from outside the US as part of the distance learning initiative. Fall 2008 will be my 6th year teaching and the 3rd one online.
