About Kate Olson

Posted by Kate Olson on January 9th, 2008

I am an educator, e-learning, educational technology and online networking consultant, website designer, blogger, and mother living and working near La Crosse, Wisconsin. My past professions include accountant (tax, audit, insurance) and stay-at-home mother. I do web design and consulting work as Kate Olson Consulting, LLC. I am the founder of and write about my adventures in motherhood at This Mommy Gig - a group parenting blog with a diverse group of writers.

I also write about education at SavvyAuntie - my articles there include:

Auntie Knows Best

The online professional development courses I have created and facilitate at Professional Learning Board include:

Introduction to Technology for Teachers
Web Technology for Teachers
Using Your Moodle

I’m always open to new ideas and projects - get in touch if you think we could work together.

All writings are my own opinion and in no way represent the beliefs of my employers, clients or the businesses for whom I consult.

I love your blog and your enthusiasm for teaching with web 2.0! I definitely share your enthusiasm, but I may be the only one at my school (besides the tech teacher and our principal) who understands the need to dive head-first into a world out students already occupy.

I have so much to learn, but I’m loving every minute of it!!

I am new to using blogging as part of the education process for my students. I found your tips and example very helpful in getting started. Thanks.

Kate, some of our teaching responsibilities share commonalities. I teach 6 sections of middle school technology 4 times a year. Let’s share resources! Please use anything you find helpful at http://www.d11.org/mann/computerliteracy. I’m going to peruse your keyboarding links if you don’t mind. It’s all about the PLN…

I’m LSSHANKS on Twitter. See you around!
