==About Rebekah==
+
Rebekah is a veterinarian from Melbourne, Australia. After spending some time in private small animal practice she completed an internship at Syndey University and spent 6 months at Ohio State University in the radiology section. During the years of post-graduate training she discovered an interest in teaching so was very pleased to have the opportunity to spend three years developing online teaching materials for veterinary students at Melbourne University, a role to which she has returned part-time after extended family leave. She has recently completed a tertiary teaching certificate, a short course in eLearning development and a workshop in open content licensing for educators.

I am a veterinarian from Melbourne, Australia. After spending some time in private practice I completed an internship at Syndey University and spent 6 months at Ohio State University in the radiology section. I realised that I enjoyed the teaching aspect of these positions more than the clinical work so was very pleased to have the opportunity to spend three years developing online teaching materials at Melbourne University.

Ready to return to work after spending time at home with my 3 children, I am moving back into veterinary education. I am currently undertaking an eteaching/ eLearning course to update my skills. I am familiar with Articulate, Dreamweaver, Director and Photoshop and hope to further expand my software skills.}}
