Welcome to my online portfolio
I am an Instructional Designer at The University of Texas at Arlington’s Center for Distance Education. I am also available for web design consultation and online course design, as well as presenting informative sessions on a wide range of topics.
I have been involved in education since 1994. I created my first web page in 2000 - which I used to deliver supplemental materials to an 8th grade Science class I was teaching at that time. I have been involved in distance education in some way ever since then. In March 2007 I started EduGeek Journal, an online community promoting educational technology.
I also regularly present at conferences, as well as give instructional classes on different aspects of online learning and other issues. I can be contacted at matt@mattcrosslin.com. You can also read more about me on the About Matt Crosslin page.
