In 2013, I made a resolution to come up with a range of various “bold” predictions for the world of education and technology. Twelve years later, I continue to try to up the ante while also staying grounded in some level of realism. Think Black Mirror but for education…or is that too dark? Some of…

Each brought to the table a different lens from which to tackle the modern challenges around cybersecurity and student safety in the K12 space.
