I am currently the Assistant Superintendent in the Hopewell Area School District. Prior to this appointment, I served as a Principal and Director of Elementary Education for 10 years. My Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education is from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and Master’s Degree in Instructional Leadership from Robert Morris University. My doctorate was earned in curriculum and instruction, also from IUP. An active member of PAESSP since 2005, I was recognized as a finalist for the National Distinguished Principals Program in 2013 and 2014.

I've been interested in writing for a long time but have pursued publication in the last few years. I've had numerous articles published and have served as an editorial advisor for Principal Magazine. In March 2016, Corwin Press published my first book, STEAM Makers in the Elementary Classroom: Using Creativity and Innovation to Teach and Learn. My website www.steam-makers.com includes valuable information about STEAM and Making.

In my spare time, I love to read and hang out with my family (Two boys, ages 2 and 4). My amazing husband has been a long time supporter of my ongoing pursuit of education and my desire to improve as a writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prepare Your Students for the Future With Remaking Literacy
Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2020
Before I was a school librarian, I taught 7th grade English. One of my students' favorite activities was using Lego pieces to write procedural texts. Each student created a small object using Lego pieces, and then they described in detail how to recreate their object. Their classmates followed the directions to determine how accurate they were. I hadn't realized 20 years ago that this was activity was an example of "remaking literacy."

Jacie's work "Remaking Literacy," although written for elementary teachers, is the perfect introduction to ALL teachers to the maker movement. It gives practical examples of ways that making can help students to express their thoughts through words. The examples ranging from low tech to high tech, provide entry points that can be modified according to available resources, academic abilities, and grade levels. Jacie has done all of the research for you...providing suggestions for books, podcasts, websites, and maker tools and resources that you will find invaluable. "Remaking Literacy" is the book that you will revisit again and again over the school year. Don't be surprised if you fill it with post-it notes!
