When you examine a new educational product, device or process you may ask yourself " will this work in my learning environment and be effective?". One way to answer these questions is to better understand the learning process and "what matters most" in instruction. In this workshop, hear first hand advice from a Superintendent who will discuss topics such as learning theory, personalization, societal effects on learning and current educational trends. Based on these principles you will then examine what must be done as a leader to choose the right product or process and how to effectively implement this change to achieve academic growth. This leadership workshop is designed for those leading and supporting students in the digital age by making technology decisions at the school and district level.
