About Martino Perzan
After teaching math, business, and computers, I found my true calling as a Teacher-Librarian, where I get to fuse my love of technology, learning, and innovation every day! Whether it’s helping teachers and students harness the power of Google Apps, diving into AI-based research tools, or developing eLearning courses and math workbooks, I thrive on making technology work for education—not the other way around.
Currently, I’m working on SkiNet (no relation to SkyNet…), an AI-powered research tool designed to support Indigenous literature studies. I’ve had the pleasure of presenting at numerous conferences, working with teacher-candidates, and geeking out over the latest edtech trends.
