Learning new, helpful, and applicable tips is necessary for today’s K12 education space. Not only are these tips helpful for Technology Coaches and teachers, but district-level technology teams also seek to learn from each other in order to improve their technology team’s structure and effectiveness. That’s why we’ve partnered with Jake Standish, a district-level IT Program Manager at Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, for our upcoming webinar.
The Dyknow team has previously worked with Jake at NCTIES 2019 to learn how Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools uses technology to defeat student device distractions, how to effectively roll out a 1:1 student device program, and more recently had a conversation with him to learn how to maintain instructional consistency in a large district.
