Dr. Donna Rennar-Potacco: Dear Learner, My background is in science education, research, and management. I have a doctorate in distance education and instructional technology, MS in biochemistry, MBA, and BS in chemistry. I have also taught and tutored many years in the disciplines of Physiology (AP, Human Biology, Applied AP), Kinesiology, and Mathematics. Most of my research has been in the areas of mentoring, online and face-to-face tutoring, and technology. My management background has been at the university and in two top 500 corporations. I look forward to using what I learned in these fields to help you reach your goals. Toward this end, my methods include helping students develop the skill sets they need to be successful in their course(s) and profession and making learning as fun as possible.
