Please join us at the Save the Bay Center for our annual meeting. After a review of the past year for the organization and a light dinner, we'll hear about 1:1 implementation strategies.
We're excited to be having Justin Reich, an educational researcher at Harvard University, speak to us about successful 1:1 implementations.
The School Leader's 1-1 Implementation Checklist
Your school has decided to go ahead with that 1-1 rollout: what now? In this session, we'll examine some of the critical considerations for educators leading 1-1 efforts in schools and districts. We'll explore a checklist of key strategies for success, drawn from research and exemplar schools and systems.
