Communicating the Value of Educational Technology Toolkit

Communicating the Value of Education Technology is a practical toolkit co-published by CoSN and ATLIS to help K–12 technology leaders articulate the purpose and impact of educational technology. Built around a core framework emphasizing learning-centered instruction, robust online privacy, and local governance, the resource addresses community concerns regarding screen time, artificial intelligence, and student safety. It features tailored messaging guidance for educators, parents, and school boards, alongside customizable templates for op-eds, letters to the editor, and social media content. Ultimately, this toolkit equips administrators to build trust, demonstrate responsible stewardship, and foster proactive stakeholder engagement.
