"If an assignment is so prone to cheating that an...emergent technology represents a threat, maybe it’s time to re-examine what we’re asking students to do...[and move] closer to a process-oriented approach." Learning Explorer Stephen tinyurl.com/524cacr5

Look at the responses to this Education Week tweet below for a glimpse of the things teachers buy, and how much they spend. The surveys with national averages don't capture their investments - financially and emotionally.

This is so true!! Homework also perpetuates disparities as not all students can study at home/have supportive grownups. Thank you @MrBlairsClass

Now that districts are outfitted with laptops, smart boards, LMSes -- e.g. digital infrastructure -- what's next? Districts can leverage federal funding to underwrite apps like Learning Explorer that increase access to high-quality digital content, and facilitate educator collaboration.

New report speaks to the time spent by teachers looking for instructional resources - many of which end up being poor quality. Some teachers "spend an average of 7–12 hours a week searching for or coming up with content from scratch." w/EdReports.org tinyurl.com/yc3wx5n7

As a parent I see the justified frustration when my kids are asked to answer questions that are poorly worded. Want to keep teachers happy and students engaged - let alone impact outcomes positively? Invest in high-quality supplemental resources like Learning Explorer provides.
