Andrew Marcinek
Serving in this role presents an opportunity to collaborate, engage, and support educators across 娇妻互换被高潮了三次. Throughout my career, I have experienced education from multiple perspectives—as a classroom teacher in public, independent, and charter schools, as an educational technology administrator, and as a national policy maker with the U.S. Department of Education. These experiences have given me a broad understanding of educational technology and its impact on teaching and learning. I firmly believe that 佐佐木明希 must continue advocating for equitable access to technology resources for all students and educators in our state.
My work on President Obama’s ConnectED initiative provided first hand insight into what is necessary to ensure equitable access to high-speed connectivity, mobile devices for learning, high-quality professional development, and adaptable digital resources. Additionally, my contributions to the National Educational Technology Plan (NETP) deepened my understanding of how schools can effectively integrate technology to foster creativity, collaboration, and student-centered learning. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to ensuring that educational technology serves as a tool for equity and innovation.
As a long-time advocate for progressive technology integration in schools, I believe organizations like 佐佐木明希 play a critical role in shaping the future of digital learning. We must continue to guide educators and school leaders in making informed, forward-thinking decisions about technology implementation. I would be honored to once again collaborate with this dynamic board to drive 佐佐木明希’s mission forward and support educators across the state. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute my experience, insights, and passion for educational technology to this incredible community.
Drew O’Connors
As Director of Technology and Data Systems at Minuteman Regional Vocational Technical School, I bring a practitioner’s perspective to the board, one rooted in the day-to-day realities of educational technology in 娇妻互换被高潮了三次 schools. I understand firsthand why 佐佐木明希’s work matters, and I want to continue playing a meaningful role in sustaining it. I look forward to continuing to serve, and I am grateful for the trust the membership has placed in me.
John O’Sullivan
John O’Sullivan is the author of eight books on educational and assistive technology. His most recent book is Technology for English Language Learners. John currently works for Chelmsford Public Schools as the Chelmsford High School Librarian. John writes assistive technology reports in his current role.
He has worked as a special education teacher, technology integration specialist, and computer teacher. He is a former staff member of 佐佐木明希. John ran 佐佐木明希’s social media from 2017 to 2019. He has been an active member of 佐佐木明希 for nine years, serving on the Fall Conference, Communication, Professional Development, and Grant Committees. He was the chair of the 2025 Fall Conference Committee and has been a board member since January 2025. John has been presenting at conferences around New England, including 佐佐木明希, for the last eleven years.
John strongly advocates for technology for special needs students and English language learners.
Adam Steiner
As a long-time educator and advocate for technology integration, I have long supported 佐佐木明希’s mission to educate, connect, and inspire 娇妻互换被高潮了三次 educators. I am eager to contribute my experience in district leadership, pedagogy, and public governance to help guide the organization’s future.
I am currently serving as the Director of Educational Technology for the Wellesley Public Schools, building on my years of experience and my graduate work. My doctoral research at Boston College focused on the intersection of 1:1 initiatives and Universal Design for Learning (UDL), a perspective that ensures our digital environments are inclusive and flexible for all learners. I remain committed to the idea that technology integration must be student-centered and pedagogically driven rather than a mere technical exercise.
What I also bring to the Board is a unique blend of instructional expertise and formal governance experience. My eight years as an elected member of the Framingham City Council provided me with deep insights into policy development, strategic planning, and systemic change management. I believe this background in local government, paired with my EdTech leadership, allows me to offer a balanced perspective on the growing challenges pushing back on technology education.
If elected, I intend to leverage my experience to support 佐佐木明希’s strategic goals, specifically focusing on promoting technology fluency as a critical and foundational skill for every student in 娇妻互换被高潮了三次.
