Sandra Gaiser loves teaching, first teaching her own children, and then helping teach technology to other children through One Day Academy. She also assists parents & senior citizens with their technology needs. Her has an MA and a BS in Communications, with a minor in Cognitive Psychology. To understand how humans learn, she designed experiments measuring attention to ads in television programs. This led an in-depth knowledge of computer technology. This strong knowledge of computers & biomedical statistics earned her a job as a statistician for a Texas state agency. Bored with statistics, she started working on the agency's computer network and was promoted to Systems Analyst. Highly over-worked, she left the agency to become an independent contractor. The agency hired a team of 7 to cover her workload! Next, as a computer consultant, she worked at numerous state agencies & some of the largest law firms in Texas, installing hardware, software, training users & writing system documentation. Four years later, she started her own computer consulting business called G & M Consulting. After many long hours & 2 children, she realized her heart was in teaching technology, and to those who really needed it: senior citizens, parents and kids. In 2006, she heard of a student enrichment program called One Day Academy. There her love of teaching and skill with technology and writing came together. She now enjoys teaching students (and their parents!) the technology they need to know including keyboarding, office applications, web design, programming, database design and computer science. The Computer Instruction Series was born out of a need for rigorous curriculum for students to be used in the classroom or at home.
