Schools have become fixated on state-mandated testing. They are looking for new ways to engage students in the hope of delivering higher test scores. Teachers are being asked to do more with less, and students are more stressed than ever.

What if the answer is not about doing more but creating a captivating experience? What if you could use custom content & the latest technology to engage students wherever they are in their educational journey? The result is higher levels of success while supporting required school-wide initiatives. 

Join us as OverDrive shares best practices on how to use new technology to create stronger lesson plans and student interactions. This session will take a fresh look at:

  • Addressing common reading challenges many teachers face today 
  • How Sora - the student reading app - acts as a classroom and curriculum discovery tool 
  • The fastest way to incorporate digital content into your lesson plans
  • How to use a digital collection for syllabi, student publications, and more
  • Employing best practices for classroom management and student privacy with Sora

This session is ideal for school teachers, librarians, and staff in charge of helping students get ready for the changing world.
