Stephenie started her teaching career at Bellville High School in 1992 where she was a high school math teacher and coach. After marrying a coach, she moved to Arp High School and then Garrison High School. When their first child, Scott, was born, she stayed home and worked as a web designer and authored these five books in a coaching series. After their second child, Rebekah, entered first grade, she returned to teaching in 2007 at Faith West Academy. She then entered Katy ISD in 2012 at Seven Lakes Junior High and taught 7th Grade Math, Algebra 1, and PreAP Geometry. She taught at Seven Lakes Junior High for three years before moving back to the high school to teach at Tompkins. There she taught Algebra 2 PreAP and Topics in Math.
She is now a classroom technology designer in Katy ISD, a fancy job title for helping teachers create and implement engaging lessons using a variety of instructional technology tools. Her main pursuit has been gamifying instruction using Canvas. She has seen tremendous results from this pursuit and is continually looking for ways to help teachers gamify their courses.
She has a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, a Master’s of Education in Curriculum and Instruction with a Mathematics Teaching Emphasis, and has started a Ph.D. in Curriculum and Instruction. She has taught 7th Grade math, 8th Grade math, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Discrete Math, and Pre-Calculus. She is also a certified virtual instructor and a Google Certified Trainer.
Her recent project has been OPERATION Tech Bingo which is a gamified professional development course for teachers.
