In this year’s Speak Up Congressional Briefing, Dr. Julie Evans, CEO of Project Tomorrow, shared the 2023-24 national research findings collected from over 100,000 K-12 students, classroom educators, administrators, and parents and families nationwide about technology use in schools, student engagement, parents’ concerns, teacher needs, and even AI policies.
Most notably, the Briefing included a panel of high school students from across the United States, offering their authentic, no-spin views on learning today, and their recommendations for closing the gap between students’ aspirations for more effective classroom learning and current instructional practices.
