The Perfect Storm

Nationwide Standard45 states will be adopting Common Core as a standard by 2014/2015

Anne Geddes

The Digital PromiseAllows us to contemplate what personalized learning for every student might look like

The Reality: We’re Not Ready

Anne Geddes

$170 per studentIs not enough to manage the transition to the Common Core

The Digital DivideOver 40M CA students don’t have sufficient infrastructure required for Common Core assessments let alone Digital Learning

FragmentationBetween schools, districts, business, government and advocacy groups

The Good News: Great Things Are Already in the Making

Anne Geddes

Administrators are in motion

Educators are thinking outside of the box

Innovators are getting us wired

Technology developers are creating new educational solutions
