Episode 8: Christine Fox
In this episode, we talk with Christine Fox, the Director of Educational Leadership and Research for SETDA. Christine and her team face a lot of challenges in a constantly changing setting, as the policy landscape is always shifting in each state where her member constituents reside. Being able to support their diverse needs is a big priority for SETDA. On the research side, she works closely with the state leader membership as well as district leaders for large data collection efforts and to find out what sorts of needs administrators and practitioners are facing in the area of technology. You can find the Guide to Implementing Digital Learning, which we talk about briefly in the interview, at digitallearning.setda.org
