Tracks: Future of EdTech Information Technology

The 2017 update of the U.S. Department of Education's K-12 technology infrastructure and connectivity guide, Building Technology Infrastructure for Learning, provides practical, actionable information to help school and district leaders navigate the many decisions required to build a technology infrastructure that supports digital learning. Meet the publication's principle lead: Susan Bearden. In this session, as a private citizen, Susan will lead a discussion on how school technology leaders can leverage the guide to achieve equity in educational technology. The guide presents technical concepts in accessible language for non-technical education leaders to ensure all students have access to transformational learning experiences enabled by technology.
