Washington, DC (January 13, 2014) – Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) CEO Keith Krueger today applauded New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s call in his 2014 State of the State Address to bolster funding for education technology statewide:
Representative George Miller (D-CA), a tireless advocate for education technology, announced his retirement earlier this week. As we reflected on Rep. Miller’s accomplishments, we became newly aware of the profound impact he had during his 40 years in politics.
Last week at the White House, President Obama recognized "Champions of Change" from the education field and reiterated the importance of delivering high-speed Internet to schools through his ConnectED initiative:

CTOs' job descriptions in 2013 would have been unthinkable twenty years ago. As technology transforms education and the world, leaders have had to evolve along with it. Keith Krueger, CoSN's CEO, says "In 1992 Price Waterhouse [assessed] that 80 percent of the job of any CIO was technical. In schools, that was 'wires in the boxes.' Today, that's about 20 percent of the job. The other 80 percent is providing leadership, vision, and an understanding of the educational environment."
Earlier this week, CoSN's Teaming for Transformation II (T4T) brought more than 140 K-12 leaders together at Katy ISD to continue the discussion about how to improve student-centered learning. T4T is working to shape the ideal digital transtion for districts. What steps have to be taken before, during, and after the fact for a digital conversion to be successful? How do we use new technology to truly re-shape learning?
