About Mara Linaberger
I am a passionate, life-long learner, artist, technologist, and adventurer. Having taught in K-5 settings for 17 years, trained teachers, served as a district administrator, and then teaching in a 1-room-schoolhouse on an island 23 miles out to sea, I\'ve seen a lot in education. Now consulting full-time, writing coursework for online universities, and collaborating with communities to consider new options for technology-infused learning, I\'ve found my authentic learning path as an educational entrepreneur. With the release of my first book, I expanded my work to coach families looking to find the best educational setting for their unique child! With my second book, I built a business incubator and global community of educational entrepreneurs making real changes in the microschool movement.Some of my specialized skills include online teaching & learning, emerging technologies (e.g. web 2.0 tools, wikis, blogs, podcasting, etc.), inquiry, creativity, mentoring, grant writing, project management, writing for publication, business incubation, business development, and editing.
