      I have experience in the above areas.  I am a
retired college English/Literature/Rhetoric and
Composition instructor (also teaching certified in
grades 7-12).  (I included Harry Potter and the SStone
in my Children's Literature course's curriculum as
soon as it came out and currently run the online The
Symbolism Course on multiple meanings in HP books.)  
I also served on a School Board for fifteen years; for
twelve of those I was President or Vice-President of
the board.
   I am not "technically literate" since I learn as I
go; I am more of an idea person and written
communication is fun for me!  If I can be of any help
to you in this endeavor, please feel free to contact
me at the above address, or at kaf4horses at aol.com.
Karen Franklin aka Prof. Opal Dragonfly
