SXSW EDU 2020

So You Want to Innovate? Remember to Communicate!

Description:

Schools are transforming education by embracing innovation and breaking out of traditional paradigms. Ed leaders must prepare thoughtful messages and deliberate, accessible approaches to gain buy-in and overcome misinformation. Workshop attendees will begin building their own communications plan, develop key messages, and share lessons learned from real-world district efforts to communicate about innovation in the classroom. Be prepared to share your experiences for collective learning!
