In an age where classrooms are filled with devices and learning is moving from static texts to ever-changing digital resources, administrators must be nimble and knowledgeable of all these changes. A tech-savvy leader is required to achieve success in 1:1, BYOD, and other technology initiatives. In this session, Steven W. Anderson, Digital Learning and Relationship Evangelist; Amber Teamann, Principal; and Tony Sinanis, Assistant Superintendent, explored the following questions:

  • What exactly is a tech-savvy leader?
  • What are the skills these leaders possess?
  • How do they keep up with current and evolving trends?
  • And where do they turn when they have questions?

This panel of digital savvy experts presented how to transition to tech-savvy leadership. Steven W. Anderson, Amber Teamann, and Tony Sinanis explored challenges, strategies, and ideas for leaders looking to change. All leaders and administrators are invited, including teacher leaders and building and district administrators.
