This was a great conversation with Amy Tyson, co-founder alongside Blythe Winslow of Everyschool.org
Ed-tech in schools is one of those things that has left parents with more questions than answers. Is it necessary? what is meaningful use what is not? Is 4 hours of homework on a device really beneficial?
She was so knowledgeable and kind.
Some things we discussed :
Ø What is the digital dilemma that schools are being faced with in introducing tech in schools
Ø weUnpack the Ed-Tech Triangle and how schools can implement it
Ø Using “tech for techs sake” and what it means for childrens academic outcomes
Ø Relevance of tech on learning, educational apps and kids with special needs.

If you know an educator or parent who may benefit from this please do share so we can get the information in the hands of more people. xoxoxo Penny
