Connect Your Lessons to the Real World, Watch Magic Happen

Dyane Smokorowski is the 2013 Kansas STOY and is currently serving as an Instructional Technology Coach in Andover, Kansas. Mrs. Smoke, as her students know her, believes in a project-based, student-centered classroom that helps students build skills in communication, planning, research and cultural awareness. She wants her students to develop a love for learning, communication and technology, but also to understand how to use those passions to advance their own futures, as well as that of the global community.
