Dr. Danilo Baylen

photoOriginally from the Philipines, Dr. Danilo Baylen serves as an associate professor in the Department of Media and Instructional Technology at UWG.  Prior to this, Dr. Baylen spent five years working as an assistant professor at Florida Gulf Coast University.  He has also had the opportunity to work in Southeast Asian refugee camps where he learned to speak more than 10 different languages.
Dr. Baylen takes pride in helping teachers become better teachers. For him, mediocrity is not an option.  He strives to best represent himself and his group affiliations.  His motto in life is “don’t be accepting of the minimum…Even though the top is crowded, there’s always a place for those who excel.”
Dr. Baylen has an avid passion for learning and in his free time can be found taking courses at the university.  His favorite course to teach is Technology Integration.  “I enjoy being able to pull in children’s literature and use different technologies available on the web.”  His hobbies include watching Sci-Fi, reading children’s books and creating bonsai trees.  In the future, Dr. Baylen hopes to one day write a children’s book and travel to Europe.
