Accelerate Edtech Impact Summit

How can educational technology better leverage learning science? This half-day summit draws together leaders in research, education, and technology to discuss, learn, and advance equitable and effective solutions.

Overview

The Accelerate Edtech Impact summit gathered 250 edtech leaders, researchers, funders, educators and students on Stanford’s campus to collaboratively shape a future of learning that is not only effective, but also equitable, diverse, and responsive to the needs of all learners.

Together, we reflected and advanced how the science of learning and design can better influence edtech solutions, especially in the age of AI.

Hosted by the Stanford Accelerator for Learning in collaboration with
Stanford EdClub and Edtech Insiders
