Does a sustainable one-to-one initiative in a large urban district seem more like a myth than a reality? Attend this workshop to learn the actionable steps that took the 10th largest school district in the nation from digital pilot to digital program. Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) is the proud home of the LaunchED digital learning program. In just four years, OCPS has closed the digital divide by ensuring equitable access to high-quality technology, including the deployment of over 100,000 digital learning devices to teachers and students K-12. Explore the LaunchED program's six pillars of success: 1) Professional Development; 2) Digital Tools and Systems; 3) Infrastructure; 4) Facilities; 5) Communications; and 6) Asset Management and Security. You will leave with sample templates and resources to launch the development of your own digital learning program.
