METAA CTO Clinic 2020 V2

Google Data Studio is a free data visualization tool which turns unwieldy data into visual and interactive dashboards. Participants will be introduced to a variety of examples related to assessment, demographic, attendance, accountability, and other types of data. Learn how one district created personalized MCAS dashboards, allowing educators to have immediate, secure, and interactive access to only their own students’ data without the need to run endless reports. 

Federal education technology policies and programs, including initiatives like the E-rate, the Student Support and Academic Enrichment Grants, are vitally important to school districts.  This session will feature an update and discussion about the latest ed tech policy developments in Washington, with a focus on cybersecurity, privacy and other related developments on Capitol Hill.  

This workshop shares how design thinking can provide a structure for creative teaching and learning, and how this process can empower our students to do remarkable work inside our schools right now. It will be hands-on and share a framework for turnaround PD for your staff!

Bringing digital transformation to your school includes a rostering and Single Sign On strategy that empowers teachers and supports student access to your districts digital resources. Critical data driven decisions regarding digital tool usage data are essential and interoperability with district student information systems can be a challenge.  Three tech directors will review and discuss the different benefits and challenges to managing and deploying Single Sign On and rostering in their district in a panel format.
