Rather than starting with AI or the latest product, he argues that leaders should first identify the learning experiences they want students to have—and only then determine whether technology has a meaningful role to play. \nThe conversation explores why so many edtech implementations fall short, how learning science should guide technology decisions, what it means to use technology to \"do better things\" rather than simply do existing things more efficiently, and how school leaders can build a more thoughtful framework for choosing and implementing educational technology.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/lhFct3p7cLz985aUjfk_GxePDfF_IkoDGzx9SamWxxo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85N2Nl/ZDI4ZGExMWMzMDlk/YTJmYjE3YWFiYmIx/YzJkMi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
