Michael Sean Gallagher is the Education Coordinator at a very large academic database. Formerly, I held roughly the equivalent position at Aluka, a not-for-profit digital library of scholarly materials by and about Africa. I develop training in a variety of electronic and print formats, including digital videos, online instruction, electronic webinars, remote and in-person classroom presentations. I write a lot of website copy and Help documentation. I use tools like Camtasia, Audacity, GoToWebinar, Prezi, Talisma, Twitter.

I have given presentations in this capacity at New York University, Rutgers University, the University of Illinois at Urbana, Princeton University, Educational Testing Services (ETS), the University of South Africa, Tunis El-Minar University, Cairo University, Ain Shams University, IHEC, the University of Ghana, SCECSAL (Zambia), the African Studies Association (ASA) 50th Anniversary Conference, and the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) 2007 Conference in Durban, South Africa.

I have a background in education, having worked as a teacher for many years both in the United States and Korea. I have a Masters in Library and Information Science degree (MLIS), with a concentration in the management of digital information. I am currently studying for a Masters in Education (elearning) at the University of Edinburgh.

I am based in Princeton, New Jersey, USA. I have lived in Seoul, Ilsan, Dayton, Pittsburgh, Youngstown. I am passionate about elearning, educational technology, simple solutions to big problems. Education. My wife. And travel. All make me giddy.
