Digital learning is at the forefront of every conversation about the future of education and is a crucial component to facilitate student achievement. On Thursday, March 3, at the Princeton Marriott at Forrestal, NJSBA will host an interactive program offering a variety of sessions covering the most pressing school technology challenges in advancing digital learning in the classroom.
The Technology Conference will include a variety of breakout sessions, and an interactive networking lunch, offering an opportunity to participate in round table discussions on hot topics in digital learning. The program runs from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with continental breakfast and registration starting at 8:30 a.m. This program offers four Board Member Academy credits.
As a result of this conference, districts will walk away with solutions to help promote digital learning in the classroom.
The day will include a keynote speech by Travis Allen, the founder and CEO of the iSchool Initiative.
