Field Internship
I did my Spring 2012 internship at Oxford University Press (OUP). OUP is one of the oldest and largest educational publishing companies in the world. I worked for the English Language Teaching (ELT) Media Production Team.
I was in charge of creating, researching and implementing educational text books, interactive text books, picture dictionaries and learning content solutions for students and educators.
This internship provided me with some first hand real world exposure inside the educational publishing industry. The work experience and research I did at OUP provided me with the necessary tools to better understand Educational Technology (ECT), Cognitive Science, Apps and eBooks and the complexities behind creating and developing cross platform educational content for the K-12 English Language Learner (ELL).
