Legislators Urge Utah Schools to Embrace Technology

Legislators and educators came together at Utah’s Digital Learning Summit earlier this week to discuss the future of educational technology in Utah schools. The legislators wanted to send a message about their commitment to tech to teachers and staff in the state, and the setting they picked to host the summit – Innovations High School – was not a coincidence. Innovation High is one of the only schools in the state that uses an “individualized, technology-based approach” to education, where students cover course material entirely online, but do it in the classroom environment where a teacher is always around to assist. Those who came to speak at the summit, did so with the intention of convincing school districts to give this approach a chance in their own schools.
