Events

On February 10th and 11th, Teq and SMART are teaming up to deliver Teaching and Learning Transformation 2021, a future-thinking virtual conference for educators that is focused on the ever-changing classroom environment.

Inspired by the teaching transformations educators faced over the past year, whether that came from where students learned, the technology used, or the ways lesson delivery was modified — educators stayed on their toes to ensure students felt supported. To continue that support, Teaching and Learning Transformation 2021 will offer a variety of PD sessions and exhibitor booths with strategies and tools to help educators stay flexible and prepared this year. Topics will include hybrid strategies, transitional tools, funding, and more.

Register for the event here!
