SPOTLIGHT SPEAKER- Sparking Positive Disruption (REPEAT)
Thursday March 6, 2025 3:00pm - 3:45pm CST
Technology can easily replace paper and pencil in the classroom, which makes teacher life more efficient. What if we used technology as a positive disruptor instead of just a replacement for paper and pencil?  In this session, I will introduce you to the T3 Framework and how you can level up the use of technology to disrupt the normal day to day use. We will explore different platforms that can elevate student engagement and learning outcomes and help you spark a positive disruption!
