'''Greetings!''' I have been at Citizendium since the private pilot began. I hold the roles of ''Assistant to the Chief Constable'', ''author'', and informally ''Media Assets Lead''.
'''Greetings!''' I have been at Citizendium since the private pilot began. I held the role of ''Assistant to the Chief Constable'' for over a year, and now only have the time to ''author'' occasionally.  I do this because ''educators educate'', and vocationally I am an educator.


===About me===
I am a major contributor to:
;Education
I am currently undertaking a postgraduate Certificate in Postsecondary Literacy Instruction at the University of Cincinnati[http://www.cech.uc.edu/programs_majors.php?p=program_detail&id=57] and will probably follow it with a PhD in the field.  Prior, I was awarded an M.Ed. in Adult Learning and Global Change from the University of British Columbia,[http://www.edst.educ.ubc.ca/programs/algc.html] and prior that graduated highest-awarded in my class from Florida Atlantic University Honors College[http://www.honorscollege.edu] with concentrations in [[anthropology]] and [[political science]]. I began all this by acheiving a [[GED]] diploma at age 32. 


;Experience
*[[Anthropology]] - most notably the introduction and early history sections
I have numerous years international experience, dispersed through [[Latin America]], [[Micronesia]], and [[Haiti]], and it has profoundly marked all I do.  In Latin America I worked in a development organizaton, in Micronesia I was an instrctor at a college, and in Haiti I conducted research on the conceptions of development and political economy among rural and urban civil society groups. 
*[[Bonny Hicks]] - sole author so far
*[[Butler]] - principle author.  ''This is an editor-approved article.''
*[[Schema theory]] - sole author so far
*[[Orphan works]] - sole author so far 
*[[Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago]] - sole author so far 


Currently, I am a remedial [[Adult education|adult educator]] at a community college in the [[United States]], and also do some consulting work related to program development for remedial learners.  My [[pedagogy]] is decidedly eclectic yet with a bent for [[critical literacy]], which [[Ira Shor]] perfectly defines as facilitating
===About me===
 
<BLOCKQUOTE>habits of thought, reading, writing, and speaking which go beneath surface meaning, first impressions, dominant myths, official pronouncements, traditional cliches, received wisdom, and mere opinions, to understand the deep meaning, root causes, social context, ideology, and personal consequences of any action, event, object, process, organization, experience, text, subject matter, policy, mass media, or discourse.[http://www.lesley.edu/journals/jppp/4/shor.html]</BLOCKQUOTE>
[[Image:Saipanese Boonie Dog.jpg|right|130px|"Siren" is a Saipanese "Boonie Dog"]]
 
;Academic interests
On one level, my academic interests combine adult education, community-based development, and globalization studies, with a particular focus on [[Global South]]/[[Global North]] interplays, including the role of technology.  On another perhaps more important level, I am interested in the learning theories and teaching techniques that facilitate the highest possible learning outcomes for every remediating and second language student. On still another level, my interests are very broad, and knowledge facinates me.  To me, the best educators are experts in their field but also very well-rounded. 
 
;Why me and the ''Citizendium''?
Given the above, I hope the answer to the question of why I am involved with Citizendium is evidently clear.  In short, educators should want high quality, neutral, and free educational resources available to all, and Citizendium holds great promise in these regards.  ''Educators educate''. 
 
;Publications
I have contributed to Suzanne T. Bell and Yukiko Inoue, ''Educational Technology in the 21st Century: The Case of the Asia Pacific Region,'' and several minor publicatons.  My principle focus to date is on practice, including tailored curriculum writing for programs, not public publishing.
 
;Hobbies
I enjoy the outdoors generally and am a lifelong [[sportfishing|sportfisherman]], both fresh and salt water, and boast several 10 pound [[largemouth bass]] and one nearly 15 pounds. Indoors, I like films of every genre, particularly [[science fiction]]. I also enjoy a great variety of music and am a multi-instrumentalist since childhood, having enjoyed some performing success as a bass guitarist.
 
===Contributions===
:''Also see [[User:Stephen Ewen/Userplan|my userplan]].''
 
Most of my contributions are in some way or another related to developing Citizendium. e.g., see [[CZ:Upload-Wizard|The Upload Wizard]] for a current project.  I just don't very often have time to really bunker down and ''write articles''&mdash;I am here, first, to help ''you'' write them.  Still, I am a major contributor to:
 
*[[Anthropology]]
*[[Butler]] - an approved article.
*Others at [[User:Stephen Ewen/Userplan|my userplan]]
 
If I show up at an article you've been working on and decide to become substantially involved with it ''as an author'', know that I am a perfectionist and am envisioning the day when our approved articles are independently evaluated side-by-side with Britannica's and Wikipedia's.

Greetings! I have been at Citizendium since the private pilot began. I held the role of Assistant to the Chief Constable for over a year, and now only have the time to author occasionally. I do this because educators educate, and vocationally I am an educator.
