CoSN, the Consortium for School Networking, hosts annual events focused on advancing technology in K-12 education. These gatherings bring together educators, IT leaders, and policymakers to discuss digital tools, cybersecurity, and infrastructure for schools. The events aim to promote effective use of technology to enhance learning outcomes.
Key Points
- Focuses on edtech leadership and innovation in K-12 settings
- Includes sessions on data privacy, digital equity, and tech integration
- Provides networking for school IT professionals and vendors
Implications for Educational Freedom
CoSN events could indirectly support educational freedom by promoting digital tools that enable school choice through online learning platforms and parental access to educational data. However, they may also highlight government overreach in tech mandates that limit parental rights in data privacy.
