About

My name is Joyce Seitzinger. I’m an e-learning instructional designer & project manager who has worked on online learning projects since 1999. Despite having a Bachelors Degree in Celtic Studies (not the greatest career move), one of my first jobs was in e-learning and I loved it right away.

I’m Dutch but have lived in Germany, Ireland and Egypt. In 2006, I moved to New Zealand to work as e-learning advisor in tertiary education, currently at EIT Hawke’s Bay. I have a Master of Education Technology from the University of Southern Queensland.

My special interests are Moodle, personal learning networks & networked learning, instructional design and staff development for e-learning.
