As I prepare for my presentation this week, I’m doing a deeper dive into Remind, a messaging app used by educators to communicate with students and parents. At all of our digital integration sessions, we hear it’s a top app used by adult educators. It’s also listed on the Workforce EdTech Tools repository, and it […]

117:365 | Stuck on the Horizon

A few days ago, I linked to the 2019 Horizon Report. Since then, I’ve seen a few articles digesting the contents, including this one in Campus Technology titled, “3 Ed Tech Trends Stuck on the Horizon (and Why)”. This article does a nice job of summarizing the Horizon Report’s coverage of three technologies that have
