Making Technology Work for Underserved Students in Schools

Monday, April 4, 2016 - 5:30pm to 8:00pm

This seminar addresses whether and how technology in schools is supporting underserved students' learning. Many schools have adopted technology in hopes of creating positive changes and increasing educational equity, but results have often fallen far short of this promise. There are positive examples, however, where technology has been able to benefit underserved students. In this session, authors of the 2014 report Using Technology to Support At-Risk Students’ Learning will share the lessons from the report, highlighting successful models and outlining implications for practice. The session opens with a lightning talk by a high school student.
