Centering Equity in Your Edtech Work

Description:

Many school systems rapidly adopted edtech tools during the pandemic, which led to challenges but also spurred the development of new ways to use technology in instruction. Learn from state leaders and practitioners about how and why Massachusetts partnered with educators and leaders to develop an equity-centered edtech guide to support the reimagination of student-centered edtech selection, implementation, and evaluation – to ultimately build sustainable systems that work against inequity.
