While the live event took place at the ASCD summer conference on DI and UbD in New York, participants from the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) National Educational Computing Conference (NECC) joined the session virtually, from Philadelphia.
The session was facilitated by Diane Mason, Technology Coordinator, from Lake Charles, Louisiana, who gave a special focus to the role of technology in capitalizing on opportunities and addressing challenges.
ASCD is collaborating with ISTE on a number of ventures over the next few years. This event, which took place on June 29, is one such activity.
