Lorah Bodie Welcome to my JDP website ... [Home | Work | Thoughts on Education | Resume | Bio/Interests | Contact] I am a student in the San Diego State University - University of San Diego Doctoral Program with an emphasis in educational technology. My research centers around the social presence construct as it related to satisfaction with learning, actual learning and a desire to persist. My work background includes: Strategic Planning, Quality Management, Project Management, Psychology and Counseling. This site includes information about my work, my philosophy about education and curriculum and the use of technology to facilitate learning, as well as a mini-resume and a bio/interests page to give you a glimpse of what I do outside of work and school.
