Our Goal


We strive to be a complete resource for using the Apple iSight camera in education. iSightEd.com provides educators and professionals a forum to find each other, share ideas and ask questions.

iSightEd is a tool for our community, developed by volunteers within our community. In order to keep this site valuable for all of us, please contribute your ideas to make it better and let us know how you might be able to assist us in getting there!

Jason Ediger - The Creator

Jason Ediger is a teacher, mentor, trainer and technology specialist.  This past year at the Apple Distinguished Educator (ADE) camp, Jason had the idea to create a forum for educators with Apple iSight cameras - and thus iSightEd was born. As an ADE, Jason brought together resources from the community to realize this dream - and continues to be that guy who pushes us all. Currently, Jason works with the Orange County Department of Education overseeing the distance learning and video conferencing program.  For the past nine years, Jason was an 8th grade teacher and in 2003 was awarded the Teacher of the Year for his district!

Walter Chefitz - The Ergonomist

Walter Chefitz is a software, jewelry and product designer. Walter was the key influence for the look and feel, design layout and feature definition for iSightEd.com. Walter maintains some connections to education - he once tutored kids in math and his brother is a high school teacher. He also has degrees in Human Factors / Ergonomics from Tufts University and University College London - so he has some justification when he says we can only have five menu items. Professionally, Walter is a cofounder of LinkPAX – the online packaging solution for the entertainment industry, and has been a product manager in the streaming audio/ video sector for the last six years. His jewelry line is available through www.waltadler.com.
