=About myself= Hi there everyone, My name is Mark Barrow and I am the grade 2 and 3 Computer co-ordinator at the American School of Doha, Qatar. I run 2 mobile labs of 24 computers, where I go into the teachers classroom and teach/integrate. This is my first international school in Qatar under the American Schooling Systems. Prior to teaching at ASD (American School Of Doha) I was a general classroom teacher in New Zealand teaching year 7 and 8 students at Bucklands Beach Intermediate School in Auckland. []. At BBI I established and maintained a student lead radio station which broadcast 5 km from school on a local frequency.

=The American School of Doha, Qatar.= [] Our school is mainly an Apple school (Arabic and a couple of classes are on a trial programme on tablets ) with over 2100 students. We teach from pre kindergarten (4years) right the way through to grade 13 (18 years). It was big change teaching overseas compared to New Zealand, the American system is rather different and the environmental conditions are also rather different.
