DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND GUIDANCE FROM THE CDC, WE ARE POSTPONING THIS EVENT. WE WILL MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO OFFER THIS EVENT IN THE FUTURE. 

You have technological devices in your schools but now what? 

TOSS ALI along with Dr. Jeannie Williams, Rutherford Co. Instructional Technology Specialist, and Dr. Terry Sue Fanning, Associate Professor of Education at Lipscomb University, is happy to present our first event that will help our leaders learn more about engaging students with their own learning as they navigate the world of ‘one to one’ devices.  We spend so much time and energy getting devices in our students hands, but how much do we really know about the right next steps?
