Beyond Screen Time: Improving Screen Time Health with Analytics Plus Presenter: Mary Batiwalla, Assoc. VP, Data & Product Research
Wednesday June 24, 2026 8:30am - 9:15am CDT
Screen time is a hot topic, but do we really understand it? Not all screen time is equal, and most districts have little visibility into whether students are focused, learning, or just logged on. What matters is the quality of that time, not just how much. In this session, discover how the new Screen Time feature in ClassLink Analytics+ helps technology leaders bring intentionality to digital engagement, identify which students need support, promote healthier technology habits, and make informed decisions that support both student wellness and learning outcomes.

Can AI Save This Marriage? Technology AND Teaching & Learning
Wednesday June 24, 2026 1:30pm - 2:00pm CDT
Every school district knows the tension: the Technology department is focused on security, privacy, and infrastructure, while the Teaching & Learning team is pushing for innovation, engagement, and student outcomes. Historically, it can feel like a marriage on the rocks. But the rapid rise of Artificial Intelligence is forcing a reconciliation. AI cannot be successfully implemented in a vacuum—it requires a deeply collaborative union between IT leadership and academic visionaries.
In this fast-paced, 30-minute tag-team session, we will break down the "marriage counseling" your district needs. We will move past the friction points and provide you with a shared language and a unified strategy. You will walk away with five immediate, collaborative actions to implement AI safely, ethically, and effectively in your schools.

Transformational Leadership: Inspiring Growth, Innovation, and Change
Wednesday June 24, 2026 2:15pm - 3:05pm CDT
Transformational leaders do more than manage tasks—they inspire people to achieve a shared vision, challenge existing assumptions, and reach their full potential. Drawing on Peter Northouse's leadership framework, this interactive session explores the core components of transformational leadership, including idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. Participants will examine how transformational leadership can foster engagement, innovation, and organizational effectiveness while developing practical strategies for leading meaningful change within their teams and organizations.
In this session, the Baylor University Moody School of Education will share more about their new partnership with TETL to help connect members to their online MS in Learning Design and Technology and EdD in Learning and Organizational Change programs, as well as how TETL members can earn credit by way of Prior Learning Assessment toward their graduate degrees.
