The diverse lineup also covers digital literacy, diversity and inclusion, esports, assessments, personalized learning, professional development and much more. In addition to discussing best practices for pedagogy in today’s blended learning environments, presenters will share new technology tools and tips to use familiar solutions more effectively. Attendees also will have access to Q&A sessions, interviews, live podcast recordings and networking opportunities with peers around the world.

full slate of speakers will bring their ideas and inspiration to the TCEA conference, including:
