Free? Really? How educators can avoid edtech traps

Rumble... woosh! That's the sound of your typical educator buried by an avalanche of new edtech products. With so much new software, how is an educator to chose?

Betsy Corcoran, founder of EdSurge, will talk with top vendors, MasteryConnect & Clever, and educator Chris Liang-Vergara about how to navigate “free” trials. Together they have collaborated on a program called “Clear & Simple Trials” aimed at helping educators genuinely test out technology with no strings attached.
