With the widespread integration of interactive technologies and persistent noise pollution, students and teachers are in distracting and often uncomfortable environments to learn and teach. In a recent survey by Logitech and Education Week, 74% of teachers agreed that students’ level of physical comfort while using educational technology impacts their level of engagement in learning “some” or “a lot.”
Research shows that when educators are equipped with the right tools, student engagement and learning outcomes can increase. Watch to learn practical and creative EdTech strategies and actionable tips to overcome today’s classroom challenges.
This recorded edLeader Panel is of interest to K-12 teachers, school and district leaders, education technology leaders, curriculum directors, technology directors, and instructional technology coaches.
