PowerSchool, the leading provider of K-12 education technology solutions, and the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) today announced that PowerSchool will be a gold-level sponsor of the ISTE 2017 conference in San Antonio, TX, from June 25-28. This annual edtech event draws more than 15,000 educators and education leaders from around the world to connect with their peers, gain industry knowledge, and see the latest edtech innovations that are empowering educators and driving student growth.
"PowerSchool is a leader in the K-12 software industry and we are so pleased that they have joined us as an ISTE 2017 Gold Conference Sponsor. Their support plays a vital role in helping ISTE to achieve our mission. Attendees at this year’s conference will surely benefit from their presence," said Rebecca Caldwell, ISTE Chief Corporate and Foundation Officer.
During this year’s ISTE event, PowerSchool will be creating a new interactive experience that combines cutting-edge technology with modern pedagogy. In this Classroom of the Future, attendees can take part in a “day-in-the-life” of a 3rd grade classroom. At the center of this is PowerSchool’s Unified Classroom, a single comprehensive technology platform for learning, instruction, grading, assessment, and management of student data. The solution gives teachers real-time insights into each student’s performance enabling teachers to make data-informed decisions for personalized learning.
In addition, visitors will interact with other new technologies such as 3-D printing, virtual field trips, robotics, 360-degree analytics, and smart speakers to see how all of this comes together to improve student success. PowerSchool's Classroom of the Future connects the dots between exciting new technologies that exist today and its ability to improve learning.
“As technology continues to transform teaching and learning, it’s important that solutions are developed with a student-centric personalized approach to truly engage a student’s mind,” said Hardeep Gulati, PowerSchool CEO. “The Classroom of the Future integrates a seamless, connected experience with PowerSchool’s Unified Classroom, fostering an environment that engages parents and students, and gives teachers time back into their day.”
Educators and education leaders attending ISTE 2017 have a unique opportunity to interact, engage, and create in an environment that promotes learning, communication, and collaboration. Attendees can experience PowerSchool’s Classroom of the Future in room 207A and stop by PowerSchool’s booth at #2918 to learn more about the innovative solutions PowerSchool provides for K-12 schools and districts.
