Session description

In a school with a diverse population of gender, race, ethnicity, and disabilities, it is necessary to provide space for all learners to reach their potential. While differentiation is a known teaching practice that has been implemented by many, leveraging technology to support this practice is an invaluable tool. Our math department integrates technology into our project planning, design, and implementation process that allows for collaboration in small and large groups. As we work to make our school environment more inclusive, we see the need for more intentional use of our data and other technology tools to support our students.
