Marc Orchant Gets Collaborative With Foldera

Congratulations to fellow Tablet PC MVP, Marc Orchant, on his move to a new job.

As of July 1, I will be joining Foldera to develop a new vertical focused on the education market. The new company, ClassFolders, will offer a version of Foldera’s collaboration and productivity software adapted to the needs of educators and students. Having been involved in education redesign and reform for the past five years during my tenure at VanDyke Software, I have witnessed first-hand the impact information technology can have on education. One of the activities I enjoyed most in my time at VanDyke was acting as the company’s representative in the education community and working with other IT professionals in the New Mexico Information Technology and Software Association to influence public education on a local and state-wide level. ClassFolders raises the bar and will provide a net-wide opportunity for me to work with educators on using technology to enhance student’s learning experience and skills development.
