Teachers benefit from these market innovations yet for the core stack of applications used by significant portions of the members of a learning community-those that would qualify as “enterprise grade”-new names and approaches aren’t as prolific or diverse given the form and function restrictions dictated by state compliance and widespread usage demanding universal design across more personas. Especially considering the multitude of apps that teachers (and in more cases, students) surface for attending to specific learning opportunities or remediating missed or difficult to attain skills and concepts. The likelihood of that number going down in the coming decade is slim at best. We’re amidst a paradigm shift the likes of which only hindsight will offer the most definition, but in the present we know this much: according to the 2020 EdTech Top 40 report from LearnPlatform, an average school district accesses 1,055 edtech applications monthly. For the sake of sustaining such endeavors and see it reflected in the procurement, implementation, and integration of tools to accomplish this mission, we will focus on those enterprise tools that impact most directly the shared vision and mission of most local education agencies in Texas, regardless of size and location. We cover topics in both guides indicating a shift in priorities to a more learner-centered approach is well worth the effort to improve our education offerings for a more equitable learning environment for all students, regardless of the continued impact of a global pandemic and call to eradicate systemic injustice. In both the Instructional Supports Guide and Edtech Leadership Guide, we suggest to edleaders they take advantage of this opportunity for updating not just policies but their technological infrastructure as well.
