💻 TETL Lunch & Learn Webinar | Combatting the Tech-Lash: What Texas IT Leaders Need to Know About Screen Time and AI Governance
Wednesday, November 11, 12-1
Register here to receive the Zoom link!
The headlines are loud, the legislation is moving, the FCC is getting involved and asking districts for data, and parents are showing up to board meetings seeking answers. Texas schools are navigating some of the most intense scrutiny in the country—from phone bans to proposals to limit screen time legislatively—and the pressure on district technology leaders is only growing.
In this webinar, you'll explore:
- What's driving the tech-lash in Texas schools—and why it's accelerating
- How screen time data is reshaping conversations with parents, boards, and legislators
- What emerging federal signals mean for how districts document and report device use
- What AI governance looks like in practice, from acceptable use policies to family communication
- How other districts are getting ahead of the conversation before it becomes a crisis
This one's built for Texas technology leaders who want to lead the conversation.
