Georgetown ISD teachers Rebecca Nolen, Michael Hartsfield, and Kaila Payne share how they have been implementing technology for teaching and learning in their classrooms where every student has a district provided Chromebook. This panel discussion took place at the 2022 Georgetown ISD State of the District event and was moderated by Kim Garcia, GISD Director of Digital Learning. We know you will enjoy hearing these three educators discuss how technology is being used in their classrooms to impact student learning and achievement.
