Description:

As “nontraditional” students become the “new traditional,” educators are embracing a definition of student success that goes beyond grades, one that meets student needs, develops creativity and improves lives. That shift means that edtech development and adoption must move away from an emphasis on efficiency, and instead prioritize connections and relationships. Come learn how educators can advocate for the design of tech that reflects a more inclusive approach to teaching.
