Are you overwhelmed by the data landscape with multiple standards like Edfi and 1EdTech? You're not alone! This session breaks down the silos and explores how to leverage both effectively. Join us for a dynamic discussion about successfully navigating this multi-standard environment. You'll gain clarity and understand the core functionalities and applications of Edfi and 1EdTech standards. Discover how a district leader has implemented both standards to achieve their data goals and explore strategies for maximizing data interoperability and streamlining workflows across various systems.

Trust In Your Ecosystem: Confidence in Security, Privacy, AI and Accessibility
Thursday, November 7 | 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM EST
Finding the right educational technology tools for your classrooms, schools, and districts can be overwhelming as new options arise and the technology continues to evolve. Fortunately, there are tools to help sort through the options and find technology that protects student privacy, takes the necessary precautions to keep information secure, and considers the needs of all students. In this session, we’ll consider three new rubrics on Generative AI Data Privacy, Security, and Accessibility, developed by a collaboration of educators and edtech suppliers, that can be used in selecting edtech tools. The Generative AI Data Privacy rubric addresses disclosure policies and transparency and encourages the examination of data; the Security Practices rubric promotes transparency to support an understanding of the various components of security practices and policies; and the Accessibility rubric provides a common framework for discussions and evaluating tools about accessibility with tool providers and suppliers.
