About this episode
In this webinar, we share real K–12 success stories that demonstrate purposeful and balanced EdTech use.
Hear from district leaders and educators who have implemented tools and strategies that boosted student outcomes, supported teacher workload, and created healthier digital learning environments.
You’ll Learn
- How districts apply CoSN’s screen-time and digital-wellbeing recommendations
- Examples of high-impact tech use that increases engagement, not passive screen time
- Strategies that improve access, reduce workload, and strengthen instruction
- Replicable leadership practices that make EdTech both effective and sustainable
