Tired, but so fulfilled. Being here & a part of this conference is a highlight every year. I get the chance to work with some of the most amazing innovators & Ed tech champions from across the state & I'm so proud to call them friends. It's always a weird feeling of relief & sadness when it ends

Screen that reads "Tests only give you one answer to choose from but with other you can ask your own questions."
What do we have in place to create the best experiences for our students- the ones that hold value and are authentic? The ones that lean into:
-Values over systems
-Process over results
-Active over passive
-Independent over compliant

We need to challenge what is "normal" and accepted by what we know is the right thing, and lean into our curiosities. #vste24

The only constant is change- we need to learn to be resilient and lean into it so we grow and continue to evolve. If we don't, what happens to us? What happened to companies that didn't evolve (Blockbuster, anyone?) #vste24 @cinehead.bsky.social

Michael Hernandez on stage with a slide that reads "We all have a blind spot around our privileges shaped exactly like us. -Junot Diaz"
Our perception of the world is shaped by who we are- we can't help it, but we can be aware of it. So important to know and identify our biases. #vste24

Two women wearing green shirts strategizing over an unseen giant checkers board.
5 people in Green shirts gathered around a giant game of checkers.
This was likely the most intense game of checkers I've ever played in my life, and it's on hold until tomorrow morning. 😂 #vste24

Dee Lanier on stage with a screen that displays text supporting ways to check bias.
#vste24 @deelanier.bsky.social is so good!! I loved how we were able to internally reflect on our own biases and reflect on how we can use that to determine bias that we may encounter in AI platforms.

Picture of a screen with a word cloud about aligning mission and vision with Collaboration large and at the center of the cloud.
#vste24 Where are we without collaboration? If others aren't invested in the vision, will it go anywhere to become reality?
