The latest issue of the State Education Standard explores education technology and the emerging challenges and opportunities it presents to policymakers. In it, authors emphasize the need for state leaders to develop broad technology plans that address key goals in education rather than dialing in on a particular technology.
Join us on October 9, 2024, for a webinar that will delve into thoughtful state planning for education technology. Julia Fallon, Standard author, executive director of SETDA and a key contributor to the U.S. Department of Education’s 2023 National Education Technology Plan, will discuss the plan’s key elements and its implications for state boards and policymaking. State leaders from Kentucky and New York will share insights on how their states are developing more comprehensive technology plans to balance the benefits of rapidly advancing technologies with the need to mitigate associated risks, while also ensuring access, quality design, and effective usage.
Following the hour-long webinar, state board members, including members of NASBE’s Ed Tech Advisory group, are welcome to attend a members-only conversation and Q&A from 4:00 pm to 4:30 pm.
This webinar discussion will feature:
- Julia Fallon, Executive Director of SETDA
- Lu Young, Kentucky State Board Member
- Melanie Haas, Kansas State Board Member and NASBE EdTech Advisory Group Co-chair
- Adrian Hale, New York State Regent and NASBE EdTech Advisory Group Co-chair
