My name is Michelle Everson and I am a lecturer in the Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Minnesota.  I also serve as a consultant for Statistics.com.  I like to find and share news stories with my statistics students that relate to some of the things I’m very interested in:  technology, education, and real-life examples of the use of statistics in everyday life.

In addition to sharing resources and articles here, I hope this blog will be a place where I can reflect on my own teaching and engage in dialog with others about teaching-related issues.  I teach in the classroom and online, and teaching is a passion for me.  I’m always thinking about new activity ideas and new things I can do in my classrooms to help my students learn.  I often feel that I learn so much more from my students than they learn from me, and I think that is why I enjoy teaching so much.  Even when I teach the same course multiple times, I never have the same experience twice.
