 Over Mij |
Andy Carvin is author of learning.now (http://www.pbs.org/learningnow), a blog about education technology for PBS Online. He is the founding editor of the Digital Divide Network (http://www.digitaldivide.net), an online community of more than 10,000 activists, policymakers, business leaders and researchers in more than 140 countries working to find solutions to the digital divide.
Andy is the author of the pioneering online education resource EdWeb: Exploring Technology and School Reform (http://edwebproject.org), launched in 1994. Named by NetGuide magazine as "One of the Top 50 Places to Go Online," EdWeb was one of the first websites to advocate the use of the World Wide Web in education. Andy is the founder and moderator of WWWEDU, the Internet's oldest and largest email forum on the role of the Web in education, and DIGITALDIVIDE, the Internet's premiere discussion group for examining digital divide issues. He also served as creator and moderator of SEPT11INFO, one of the most successful online communities created in the hours following terrorist attacks on New York and Washington. Andy has been featured in numerous publications, including the New York Times, Harvard Educational Review, Education Week, Washington Post, Rolling Stone, Village Voice, Wired, San Jose Mercury News, The Industry Standard and the second edition of The Internet Unleashed, published by Sams/MacMillan. Before coming to the Benton Foundation, Andy served as New Media Program Officer for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, where he developed Internet-related grant programs for the public broadcasting community.
In December 2001, Andy was named by District Administration magazine as one of America's top 25 edtech advocates. Andy received similar honors from eSchoolNews in 1999 when they named him a member of its Impact 30 list of edtech leaders. He is a former member of the board of the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN), which advocates policies advancing the role of information technology in schools. From 1999 to 2001, he served on the Board of Directors for the Asia/Pacific Center for Justice and Peace, a consortium of NGOs that promotes democracy, freedom of speech and freedom of religion across Asia.
Andy holds a bachelor of science in rhetoric and a master of arts in telecommunications policy from Northwestern University, where he received the prestigious Annenberg/Washington graduate fellowship. While living in Illinois, he was co-founder and editor-in-chief of the Chicago-area arts weekly, Art+Performance. Andy has traveled extensively around the world and has written about his adventures in popular online travelogues. In January 1999, Andy premiered From Sideshow to Genocide: Stories of the Cambodian Holocaust (http://edwebproject.org/sideshow), a virtual history of the Khmer Rouge regime and collection of survivor accounts. More recently, Andy has been reporting on his travels through his popular blog, Andy Carvin's Waste of Bandwidth (http://www.edwebproject.org/andy/blog). Andy is an avid amateur genealogist; his successful use of DNA testing to explore his family's lineage was profiled in a January 2001 cover story of US News and World Report (http://www.usnews.com/usnews/issue/010129/migration.htm). He recently completed co-producing the independent documentary Thai Boxing: A Fighting Chance, which has aired in more than 140 countries on the National Geographic Channel.
