Let’s host a day of learning together with EdTech in Focus.

Schedule your event

An EdTech in Focus event provides administrators and teachers with an overview of Teq’s products and professional development. Participants leave excited by what’s possible with Teq’s hardware and professional development offerings.

What it can do for you?

An EdTech in Focus event is a great opportunity for your teachers and administrators to learn about new classroom technologies, and to learn how to better integrate the technologies they already have. EdTech in Focus is also a fantastic way to network with nearby districts and learn about their successes and challenges when implementing their technology initiatives.

How does it work?

While we encourage teachers to attend, the primary audience should be administrators from the host district and surrounding districts (we recommend hosting a minimum of 10 administrators). Sessions can be run in two different models depending on the space, staffing, and agenda of the event:

Option 1: Station-based sessions that are run simultaneously and have participants rotate between the stations.
Option 2: A single session where all participants attend together with short breaks in between.

What does the schedule typically look like?

  • Meal – 30 minutes
  • Opening keynote – 10 minutes
  • Break – 10 minutes
  • Session 1 – 45 minutes
  • Break – 10 minutes
  • Session 2 – 45 minutes
  • Break – 10 minutes
  • Session 3 – 45 minutes
  • Closing statements – 5-10 minutes
  • Total run time: 3 ½ hours

Technology proficiency ranks the complexity level for teachers as they implement the product into their instruction. Curriculum versatility indicates products with a higher versatility, meaning they can be used in multiple subject areas or grade levels compared to products that are more subject and/or grade specific.
