🚀 Instructional & Tech Coordinators: How much instructional time is your district losing to the "substitute access dilemma"? You provide digital curriculum for consistency and student data security, but a teacher's unexpected absence means their sub often: ❌ Wastes 15+ minutes just logging in. ❌ Uses borrowed logins (the dreaded sticky note!). ❌ Can't access curriculum, leading to a lost day of learning. The result? Inconsistent instruction and unnecessary security risks. It doesn't have to be this way! Learn how Robbie Faith, an Instructional Technology Coach in Oregon, successfully integrated a secure, scalable solution—Clever's Substitute Access—across 17 elementary schools in under a year. This led to: ✅ Uninterrupted learning for students. ✅ Better data security across the district. ✅ Successful PD (teachers even clapped during his training!) Ready to solve the substitute access challenge with a strategic rollout plan that actually works? 🔗 Tap into Robbie’s playbook for practical implementation tips: https://lnkd.in/ew_nF6U5

💡 2025 Report: Teachers Named the #1 Tool for Student Re-Engagement Our Classroom of the Future Report found a remarkable trend: 60% of teachers name gamification as the most effective way to re-engage with disconnected learners. For edtech providers, this is your blueprint for maximizing product usage and impact. For school leaders, this is how you turn a tool purchase into classroom adoption and better outcomes. We’re proud to power secure access that gets you straight into the leaders in game-based learning: Kahoot! is a game-based learning platform that brings engagement and fun to players every year at school. With Prodigy Education kids practice standards-aligned skills in Math and English as they play our fun, adaptive learning games. With FabuLingua, Inc., kids learn Spanish naturally through interactive stories in a fun mobile game. Wayground (formerly Quizizz) bridges district priorities and classroom realities with the supplemental curriculum platform that helps students hit grade-level standards faster. School leaders, we know that teacher buy-in drives impact. Yet, our research found that only 20% of school decision-makers consider teacher adoption when choosing edtech. #Edtech #FutureReadyClassrooms #ClassroomoftheFutureReport What are some ways you involve educators in the edtech procurement process?

How are you balancing secure digital access with AI-driven innovation in your state?

It’s clear that cybersecurity and AI strategy are the two biggest levers shaping the future of digital learning. To all the leaders we didn't get to connect with: Jamie Reffell, Dominic Via, and Jeff Carlson are taking these insights straight back to our team to ensure we’re solving your most urgent access and identity challenges.

Don't let this important topic end at #EdTechWeek. Let's keep the conversation going. For edtech vendors and school leaders: What is the one thing the other side (schools or vendors) could do to accelerate secure IEP and 504 data transfer across state lines today?
When data is siloed, it prevents the systems and tools that support students from working effectively. CEO, Erin Mote, facilitated a vital panel discussion at #EdTechWeek that highlighted why connecting student data is non-negotiable for supporting students with IEPs. As featured in GovTech, we learn about how to create a clearer educational landscape for every learner. Huge thanks to our fellow panelists for their expertise: Lindsay Kubatzky, director of policy and advocacy at the National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD), and Jeff Carlson, Head of National Education Partnerships at Clever Inc..

💡 Simplified tech stacks. One trusted access point. Students ready for whatever’s next. At the National Rural Education Association's NFARE 2025 Conference, we had powerful conversations with rural and small district leaders focused on finding balance — simplifying their digital ecosystems, supporting teachers who juggle multiple subjects, and preparing students for a fast-changing world. One message came through clearly: when educators have one reliable place for digital learning, it makes a real difference in how classrooms run and how teachers feel supported. ✨ We also loved co-hosting a packed reception with our friends at Discovery Education, bringing together educators and leaders for great conversation, collaboration, and community. 📸 And if you stopped by the Clever photobooth, we hope you left with a keepsake and a smile that reminds you of the inspiring work you do every day. Thank you to everyone who made NFARE 2025 such a meaningful experience. We can’t wait to see you again in San Antonio, Texas, October 19–21, 2026! 🤠
