CREATING INNOVATION IN EDUCATION

Introduce yourself! You'll probably want to use a picture of yourself. You can pull directly from your camera roll, Facebook account, or Instagram collection. (Bonus tip: It doesn't have to be taken by a professional, but it should look professional.)

And Changing the Face of Learning Forever

You can change the order of these slides, or add more that follow a similar format, to suit your need or mood, but it might be helpful to showcase your current role, summarizing your primary responsibilities and how long you've been part of the team.

You could include a photo of yourself in your work setting, or you could think more metaphorically to illustrate your work.
