Why EdTechRI: Instructional Leaders & Educators
Whether you are leading a school building or managing a classroom, there is never enough time in the day for disconnected training. We cut through the noise by offering focused, high-impact professional development designed for the realities of modern instruction. EdTechRI provides immediate, actionable strategies that educators can seamlessly integrate into tomorrow's lesson plans, and provides building administrators with meaningful, tech-focused PD that actually respects their staff's time.
Professional Development That Respects Your Time
Building budgets are notoriously tight, and educators shouldn’t have to rely on out-of-pocket expenses or crowdfunding to bring innovative tools to their students. Because your district utilizes EdTechRI for their technology purchases, we reinvest those funds directly back into your building. Active members and administrators gain exclusive access to EdTechRI classroom innovation grants, professional tech scholarships, and hardware trial pools. We provide the financial backing necessary to turn creative educational concepts into funded, classroom-ready realities. In addition, EdTechRI provides low cost in-person professional learning options as well as low-cost or free virtual professional learning options.
Direct Funding for Classroom Innovation
Pioneering new educational technology can feel isolating for both the educators in the trenches and the principals guiding them. EdTechRI ensures your building never has to innovate alone. We plug your instructional teams into a thriving, collaborative network of regional peers who are doing exactly what you do. By joining our community, your staff gains a supportive environment to share proven lesson plans and troubleshoot classroom tech realities—empowering educators and helping building leaders retain their most innovative talent.
