Doug Johnson Blog: Writing, Speaking and Consulting on School Technology and Library Issues

Johnson’s Law of Technology Integration: Use techology to make your poor units better, not your great units worse. (More rules)

WELCOME to my “personal” homepage. This is a way of separating my efforts as the Director of Media and Technology in the Mankato Schools and my professional efforts as a writer and speaker.

I am great believer in the “stone soup mentality.” Like the soldiers in the old French fable, I know that when each person in a profession, organization, or community brings his or her individual talents and efforts to the table, everyone benefits. This page holds my offerings to the profession of library media and technology. I have certainly borrowed lots of wonderful ideas from many of you. I am obligated. (See “Why I Write For Publication,”)
