About our Guest: Jud Hartman

Jud Hartman is in his first year as an Instructional Technology Specialist and coaches approximately 130 teachers in his district. Before that, he taught 8th grade Science for 14 years, where he did Project Based Learning and Universal Design for Learning. Jud has a B.A. in Middle Childhood Education and an M.A. in Educational Leadership. He is an Apple Learning Coach, a Google Certified Educator, and currently working on his ISTE Certification. He will also be a lead presenter at FETC in New Orleans this January. Jud became an educator because he used to be the kid in class that sat there, bored, and thought, “There has to be a better way to do this?” Throughout his career, he has made it his mission to answer this question!
