I had a few ah ha moments while presenting at MicroK12's TechFest North yesterday on insights from Washington state's Educational Technology Survey. #1: It is important for small/rural districts to know they are not alone in cybersecurity staffing needs, #2: AI policy and procedure adoption is key to classroom integration and meaningful student use and #3: we will likely see 1:1 device replacement cycles regress back to pre-pandemic models due to funding shortfalls. For those in the trenches, it is important to know there are so many of us advocating for K-12. WE hear you and continue to elevate your needs. Want to learn more about work underway?

2024 reinforced a crucial truth: meaningful educational technology isn't about having the newest tools—it's about implementing them thoughtfully to serve students while keeping them safe. This year brought opportunities to deepen that mission through practical action: ? Joined Mississippi AI Collaborative to help shape responsible AI integration in education ? Enhanced district cybersecurity and digital citizenship initiatives ? Completed specialized AI education certifications to better support teachers ? Started doctorate in Educational Leadership focusing on technology implementation ? Selected for Future of Privacy Forum Student Privacy Train the Trainer program Most inspiring was seeing PGSD teachers embrace new tools while keeping student success and safety at the center. From elementary classrooms using AI to personalize reading instruction to high school programs exploring emerging technologies, our educators showed what's possible when we balance innovation with protection. Looking ahead: Excited to welcome educators to MECA 2025 where we'll focus on strategic technology integration that puts students first. We'll continue exploring how to harness AI's potential while maintaining our commitment to student privacy and safety. Continue on my path to complete my Doctorate in Education at William Carey University. To every educator working to create secure, empowering digital learning environments: your dedication to both innovation and student protection inspires me daily. Together, we're building a better digital future for our students. -- Get your 2024 LinkedIn Rewind at https://lnkd.in/gDUvGYrA

?? While technology has the power to revolutionize education, it’s important to acknowledge the real challenges teachers face in adopting it in the classroom. According to recent findings, there are several reasons why some educators hesitate to integrate tech into their teaching. ?? From concerns over privacy and lack of technical support to minimal funding and the digital divide, these barriers can make it difficult for teachers to effectively use technology. Additionally, some teachers feel overwhelmed or outpaced by rapid tech advancements, while others struggle with accessing blocked sites or lack the training to use new tools confidently. ?? But here's the question: How can we address these challenges and support our teachers in embracing the full potential of educational technology? ?? By understanding and tackling these obstacles, we can create an environment where technology enhances, rather than hinders, the learning experience. It’s time to ensure every teacher feels equipped and confident to bring the future of learning into their classrooms! ?? #EdTechChallenges #TeachingWithTech #DigitalDivide #SupportEducators #FutureOfLearning #TechInEducation #EmpowerTeachers
