Utilizing Technology in the Classroom

Technology is reshaping how our students learn. On this episode, Dr. Shanoff sits down with one of our Top 10 Teacher of the Year Finalists, Mr. German Ortiz, to show what that looks like in action. Mr. Ortiz shares how he empowers students to take ownership of their learning by tracking their data digitally and reflecting on their growth in real time. Together, they dive into everything from setting healthy tech boundaries at home to simple ways teachers can bring more digital tools into their classrooms. This conversation also looks ahead at how our district is developing thoughtful guidelines for the use of AI in education.
