Many K-12 companies make unforced errors that jeopardize their efforts to build relationships with districts that lead to lasting business deals. In this private briefing, Sean draws from exclusive surveys of district decisionmakers and original reporting to lay out the biggest mistakes education businesses make—in sales and overall strategy—and how they can be avoided. This session will offer company officials and investors insights on what district officials want from vendors—and what they definitely don’t want. Please select a date and time to attend:
- What’s more important to educators, evidence of effectiveness or cost?
- What kind of data do district leaders really want?
- What type of teacher feedback makes or breaks your odds of success with district leaders?
- How will district leaders spend their federal Title IV funds?
Public schools spend billions on technology and digital content, yet ed tech has failed to noticeably impact instructional strategy in the classroom. What steps should schools and education companies take to change that reality? We will present some of our findings from our own reporting and research, as well as outside studies on the subject. Please select a date and time to attend:
In addition, Sean Cavanagh will be moderating a panel at 10 a.m. on April 9 about social-emotional learning, and what K-12 districts are demanding from the market in that area.
The panelists for the discussion are Rob Jagers, the vice-president of CASEL, a leading research organization on social-emotional learning issues; Andrea Lovanhill, the vice president of marketing and client relations for the Committee for Children; Denise Herrmann, the superintendent of the Roseville Joint Union High School District, in California, and Ron Goldman, the founder and CEO of the company Kognito.
