More About Jennifer Beine
Jennifer Beine has been the director of November Learning’s BLC Professional Development Conference since 2008, while also serving as the technology coordinator for various school districts since 2003. In her director role she shows tremendous work ethic, excellent interpersonal skills and incredible proficiency in organizing over 55 presenters, 1000+ attendees and a staff of 25, which included 12 middle-school students. Teachers who have attended her workshops hold her in high esteem. In her role as a coordinator she was invaluable in building mutual respect by showing educators how to integrate technology into their existing core curriculum. Jennifer has a wonderful strength in enhancing and improving projects that teachers find frustrating or lacking in rigor. She is excellent at guiding and helping teachers inspire young learners to take a more active role in their learning through self-directed learning projects.
Currently she is heading up an effort to transform teaching and learning at Lawrence Township Public Schools in NJ. She spends approximately 50 hours a month coaching teachers in sixth – eighth grades in one-to-one and co-teaching scenarios. She also coordinates 42 days of their professional development for the year by bringing in practitioners who specialize in integrating 21st century skills with specific aspects of the curriculum.
What They Say
"I think you did a fantastic job and I am not just saying that - the sessions were fun and I really think you absolutely nailed the brief talks in between the actual training. That was key in making the day worthwhile for the teachers because it really laid out the expectations."
"The information was more comprehensive than I expected, and I feel confident that I will not only better assist my student at home, but apply some new techniques at work myself. It was great, thanks!"
"I just wanted to let you know again how much I appreciated the experience of BLC. I have a small inkling of all the hours that go into making a conference like that a success, and all of the "little things" that must be organized so that everything runs smoothly."
"Jen, I can not say enough about your poise under pressure, your organizational skills, your graciousness as a host to 1,000 people, and how everyone loves working with you. You have a gift of natural leadership. I wish I had your talent."
