The opening keynote at FETC 2027 stopped me in my tracks when I saw the lineup: a college student entrepreneur whose AI platform has reached more than 200,000 learners worldwide, a high school senior who helped co-design his district’s AI policy, and an educator who has spent 30 years making sure technology serves every learner — including the ones most often left behind. That is the conversation I want to be part of this January in Orlando. If you feel the same way, I hope to see you there. Use my code for 10% off ➡️ASTORER10 #FETC #EdTech

Yesterday, MISD kicked off Fall Break with a little October PD! I had the absolute best time presenting 6 sessions on the #Google AI Educator Series (plus a few secret-sauce tips & tricks). But now? My brain is officially in airplane mode. Bring on a glorious week of doing absolutely nothing. 🤣❤️🛌 📚 📺

Shout-out to @EdTechDestiny and her NEW BOOK! 📢 Teachers are really good at taking care of everyone else. The students. The families. The team. The school. And somewhere along the way, it gets very easy to believe that being a “good teacher” means always being available, always saying yes, and somehow finding more hours in a day that stubbornly refuses to have more than 24. I’ve had the chance to see what Destiny Wagner has been working on with The C.A.L.M. Teacher, and I think this is a book a lot of educators need. It’s about creating calmer, more sustainable ways of working so teachers can still enjoy the parts of the job they love – without sacrificing themselves to do it. If that sounds like something you or a teacher you know could use, learn more about the book and be the first to know when it launches: myetn.link/calmbook

If you've been putting off deciding on FETC 2027, the agenda makes it an easier call. Nine tracks, 204 concurrent sessions, 130 workshops and 11 intensives on AI strategy, cybersecurity, accessibility and CTE pathways, all live and ready to browse.

Great first week back with our teachers and my awesome team! Loved sharing EdTech Updates with my Elementary friends and some fun tips and tricks with my Secondary friends in Tech Trail Guides this week. Tired, happy, and so grateful to do what I love every day! #SaddleUpMISD #MISDInnovates 🤠 💻

Guess what!? I’ve been keeping this secret for way too long!! @techCAREWilson is Region 6 School Counselor of the Year!! Here is what I shared with Mrs. Locke to read for me (TY!!) since I was high in the sky in an airplane when Dyann was surprised. ❤️❤️ It has been so hard to keep this secret from you, and I’m so sad I’m not there in person. By the time you hear or read this, I’ll be on my way to California. Promise to celebrate once I get back, but until then… Please know that we are so unbelievably proud of you! Region 6 School Counselor of the Year?! It is true heart work what you do. You have the biggest heart, and I am constantly in awe of how you give so much to your school while still being the most incredible mom, wife, friend and sister. You deserve to be celebrated for all the ways you shine! Have the best day, soak up every single second of this celebration, and get ready to party when I get back! I love you more than all the sour candy in the world! #breadandbutter
