{"id":37,"name":"Sheila Selden","url":"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/site\/sheilaseldengraphicdesign\/","description":"I received my BS in Graphic Design from the University of Cincinnati having completed  a 5-year cooperative work\/study program. I went to work for a well known designer, MIlton Glaser, in Manhattan, based on a project I created in his workshop a the International Design and Humanities Conference in Aspen, Colorado. There, in NYC, I worked for 17 years as a Graphic Designer. For ten years I was self-employed with a small design and marketing consulting firm until I moved to Vermont to raise a family. I continued as a designer in Vermont working with Orvis, The Vermont Country Store, Southern Vermont Art Center, GNAT-TV as a video producer\/editor\/designer and many other large and small companies. I was self taught when it came to computers and all the design and communications software required to run a design business. However, due to changes in the economy I went to Marlboro Graduate Center in Brattleboro and changed career directions. I received 2 master\u2019s degrees, MA in Technology Education and MS in Management and became a technology educator and integrator, which I love as much as I loved design. While I still do some design work (the occasional web site, catalog or branding program) mostly I spend my days teaching others how to teach themselves, as I did. The world of technology is a huge new world that opens doors everyday to both opportunity and hazard. I consider it an honor to be charged with preparing coming generations to navigate this brave new world and these exciting new tools. I have worked as a technology integrator with the Bennington School District, a middle school and high school technology educator at Black River High School Middle School in Ludlow, taught Graphic Design and Media at Sugar River Valley Regional Technical Center and now, I teach middle school technology half-time and do technology integration half-time at Brattleboro Area Middle School.","link":"https:\/\/tiie.w3.uvm.edu\/blog\/author\/sheilaselden\/","slug":"sheilaselden","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/961d246bc4de8e0154d74e1cf9cbf5f9241a6bc30ba805ebe481e417dcbef604?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/961d246bc4de8e0154d74e1cf9cbf5f9241a6bc30ba805ebe481e417dcbef604?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/961d246bc4de8e0154d74e1cf9cbf5f9241a6bc30ba805ebe481e417dcbef604?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tiie.w3.uvm.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/37","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tiie.w3.uvm.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
