EdTech Classroom Panel: Safe and Sound Schools

There are many facets to campus security and safety — COVID precautions, school shootings, student mental health concerns, building access control, emergency communications — but one thread that unites them all is technology. Day 1 of EdTech Talks will explore innovative ways technology, tools and infrastructure can help keep students safe both in and out of the classroom.


EdTech Before the Bell: The Connected Campus - Zoom Today Beyond Meetings

Please join Dr. Lance Ford as he shares the advancements of Zoom technology and the specific value that Zoom can bring to educational facilities. If all you know is Zoom Meetings, you only know 15% of the value that Zoom can deliver to your campus/classroom. Dr. Ford is an educator himself, and will share where Zoom plays a role in security, face to face connectivity, classroom enhancements, language transcription, and campus connectivity.

Technology touches nearly every interaction a student has with their college or university.

In Day 2’s presentations and discussions, EdTech experts will explore how a laser focus on the student experience can break down barriers to student success and steer digital transformation efforts in the right direction.

Using Tech to Champion Student Success

Although institutions are faster to adopt technology today than ever before, the driving force of adoption in recent years was survival — not student success. As universities enter a fundamentally different era of competition, the future will belong to institutions that bring strategy and intentionality to digital transformation and use it to enable better student outcomes.
