UW FACULTY MEMBER TO SERVE ON EDTECH GENOME PROJECT COMMITTEE
A University of Wyoming education assistant professor in the School of Counseling, Leadership, Advocacy and Design will serve on the 30-member steering committee for the EdTech Genome Project.
As part of the committee, Barbara Hickman, in UW’s College of Education, will join leaders from education and research organizations, including the Society for Technology in Education, the National Education Association, the American Federation of Teachers, Gallup and the American Institutes for Research, as well as teachers and technology leaders from seven public school districts across the country.
The EdTech Genome Project is a first-of-its-kind initiative with a vision to create an evidence-based framework to help educators make better-informed decisions about what technology to use in their classrooms and how to implement it most effectively.
