How To Beat Teacher Tech Resistance


A data analysis & technology integration specialist shares her experiences encouraging tech-hesitant teachers to embrace technology that improves teaching and learning

On how the pandemic perversely helped advance the use of tech:

“I think people were apprehensive about using new technologies because they were forced to do them at the time. So that’s also difficult when you’re forced to do something and change comes so quickly and you don’t go through a process. It’s very difficult. But what I have noticed is people adapting the things they were forced to use and asking more questions and changing them to customize it their way.”

On what the future holds:

“I do see a change in the way in which we’re using technology. The way we’re asking about technology. And I think moving forward, we’re only going to continue to grow. As more and more people are venturing out to conferences… there’s a new spark of excitement that I think will only continue to grow.”
