[School-of-data] School-of-data Digest, Vol 2, Issue 4

Fri May 18 08:52:02 UTC 2012

Hi all,
I am Pablo Martin, an educator working as a coach in innovation teams. 
I have experience in elearning courses design and I would be interested 
in testing and traslating materials into spanish, plus tutoring them to 
spanish speaking people.
I will not be able to be online next week but I will follow outcomes 
and try to help in asynchronous mode.
Best regards,

Pablo Martin
