After listening to the Podcast, I do feel that I lean more toward being the innovator. I seek out new technologies and have many of them. For example, I own multiple computers (unfortunately, perhaps fortunately, I also feel the need to have the latest and greatest available), I own and use Ipods, Blogging, computers in the class, and the latest software for images and education.
What really made me feel the part of the innovator, at least at my site, is that most teachers will come to me with questions of "How-Do-I, How-Does-This Work, and questions about the latest technology. Many teachers have expressed their desire to learn the technology, but have been hesitant to use it as I have. I have full accepted that I must use technology to reach my students, and am willing to look for better tools.
This week has been spent writing up my project and posting to Blog site.

Hey Robert,
Although I tend to seek out information using technology, I don't necessarily seek out new technologies and how they can serve my purpose or those purposes of my students. I am open up to new ideas. It's great that you feel that you are an innovator. We actually need more teachers like that. Innovation in part is what made this country great.
