Transcript
Lauren: Welcome to the EdTech Explored podcast, I'm Lauren.
Erin: And I'm Erin. We're here to discuss the edtech landscape as it stands today. We'll be looking at current events, the challenges, and the triumphs happening with edtech. And we're out to describe, not prescribe—we don't claim to know what the best route forward is, only that we're going forward together.
Lauren: We've got a few things planned for you. First of all, there will be some conversations that will be between me and Erin, where we will be discussing current topics in edtech. We will also be bringing on some Skyward experts so they can teach you more about features you might not be taking advantage of, or give you tips on things like migrating if you're going to be undergoing a migration soon. So, we'll be bringing those experts on to chat as well. We also will be bringing on educators who can speak to their areas of expertise with firsthand experience on the front lines of education.
Erin: That could be teachers, it could be district administrators, it could be all types of people who care about kids in schools and are working to create better schools for kids.
Lauren: So, if that sounds intriguing to you and you want to follow us, you can go to skyward.com/podcast where you'll be able to listen to the episodes and learn more about the podcast and any news there. You can also find us on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
