Welcome to our new website.  If you are reading this in mid 2016 then the site is probably a little lame as we are trying to consolidate several Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, webpages, Pinterest, Evernote clippings, etc. into a cohesive set of webpages on a single domain.  So, be patient with us as we get this thing organized.

Webpage - Soon to just be www.MyITInstructor.com

We currently have the following sub-pages; My IT Instructor - Dedicated to my day job... Community College Instructor - Computer Information Systems.  Here you will see items related to CompTIA, Cisco, and Microsoft certifications, Linux and cyber-security items.  Mr. Bruce's HackerSpace - Dedicated to my students and our shared enjoyment of all that is Raspberry Pi, Arduino, robotics, and general geekdom.  Here you will see interesting projects, projects directly out of our classroom, ideas, hopes, and dreams...  Raspberry Pi IT Up - This page is dedicated to my fellow Instructors/Teachers.  Here you will find over time course curriculum, worksheets, ideas, inspiration to help my peers integrate tinkering/making into their courses.

I hope you will enjoy what we are putting together and you will visit often and participate in the building of this resource to share our passion for technology and the art of learning through tinkering.
