New Instructional Design Technology Specialist


It is with great pleasure that I announce the arrival of Rhonda Bauerlein to our campus community as the Instructional Design Technology Specialist. Rhonda has been working at Grossmont College since 2001 as a Learning Resource Systems Specialist where she was responsible for the coordination and oversight of the library database and personal computers. In that position, she installed software and provided training and assistance to faculty, staff and students. She also maintained the library’s website and created new sites as needed. Prior to this, Rhonda developed curriculum for a Multimedia Technology program at Pikes Peak Community College and taught classes on the integration of animation, audio, video, and pictures in multimedia presentations. She also established and coordinated a Multimedia Instructional Design Center at Pikes Peak. Rhonda has a very strong technical background in the computer industry prior to her shift to academic settings. She has a Certificate in Computer Programming, a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Colorado, and a year of coursework towards an M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction specializing in Educational Technology from the University of Colorado.
