Prior to WWU, Tony taught mathematics and computer programming at Everett High School - Everett, WA for 15 years. He taught his first 'computer' class on Saturdays in 1969. His first regularly scheduled class (using punched cards) was in 1972. In 1982 he was a half-time computer coordinator for the Everett School District. During his time at WWU, he taught classes first in Computer Education and then in Instructional Technology. He served as Program Director and Department Chair for Instructional Technology and Department Chair for Educational Leadership. His interest is in the effective use of technology in the K-12 classroom.

Comment from David Moursund. I was Tony Jongejan's major professor in the College of Education at the University of Oregon. By the time he entered my program he was already a well established and outstanding leader in the field of computers in education. It was delightful watching him present at at conferences, and to attend conferences he had organized. It was a pleasure to get to know him and to have him as a student.

While Tony was at the University of Oregon, students in my graduate seminar worked with me to establish the International Council for Computers in Education's Special Interest Group for Teacher Education (SIGTE). Tony was the first president for this SIG.
