Dear Colleague,
Everywhere you look, there is talk about the economy. While we don’t know what’s ahead, we
can guess that educational organizations and public schools are dealing with tighter budgets
now. Planning in times of tight budgets is challenging and organizations need a strategy for
choosing everything from personnel to systems, hardware, software, professional development
and other essentials. With this letter, I would like to introduce 2020 Learning, a strategy to
systematically address these challenges.
My name is Jorge Madrid, Arizona state teacher and founder of EduTechNia, a 501 c 3
nonprofit educational organization. During the last couple of years, we have been conducting
research on the effectiveness of technology in public school. Now, we are sharing these
findings. Please click on the following link to learn more about our case study:
Why Technology is failing in public school.
After determining the problem and finding the solution, I am in search of a new professional
opportunity where my capabilities will contribute to your organization’s success. My expertise
in the areas of technology, education and social entrepreneur would be beneficial to your
organization. Please consider my qualifications:
Leadership and vision for comprehensive integration of technology
Facilitate and inspire student learning and creativity
Design and develop digital-age learning experiences and assessments
Model digital-age work and learning
Promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility
Engage in professional growth
Provider of community development
Thank you in advance for the time you have taken reading this letter and my accompanying
resume, and I look forward to meeting with you in person to discuss how I can contribute to the
excellence of your organization or school district by making a positive impact on the lives of
your students.
Sincerely,
Jorge Madrid
