EdTech Data Trends in 2020-21 S2E2
What do the edtech trends tell us and how can we apply them?
In the second part of the CoSN Podcast mini-series on education technology data, we’re joined by Mark Finstrom, former Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for Highline Public Schools, a district of 20,000 students in Washington state, discuss data trends from the current year. Finstrom discusses specific observations in Highline PS, as well as the ways in which these trends can be interpreted for broader understanding.
Among the important topics discussed are the ways in which prior edtech planning benefited the district, along with some of the major surprises from the past year (4:35); how to make sense of large amounts of data and determine which data is truly useful and actionable (10:10); and the changes Highline is making in response to data trends from 2020-21 (20:20).
