BenQ Senior Director of Business Development Bob Wudeck and Digital Marketing Manager Carly Burton Sallay joined MarketScale Business Development Manager Shannon Maverick in MarketScale’s Trinity Studio for a discussion on exciting innovations in Education Technology.

Specifically, the trio touched on the evolution of in-classroom technology, highlighting the direction of the EdTech industry as a new decade begins.

Wudeck said the primary purpose of technology in education, from chalkboards to the latest, cutting-edge solutions, is to bridge gaps in learning for students.

The technology-native nature of today’s younger generations, Burton Sallay said, is also a key consideration in the modern EdTech space.

“They’re introduced to technology basically the moment they’re out of the womb,” she said. “They are learning at a different pace and in a different way than we ever did when we were younger.”

That comfort with technology, Burton Sallay said, has allowed technology to play a greater role in education sooner in students’ lives than ever before.

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN's 2026 Blaschke Report and companion toolkit give K-12 districts a plan for technology change. Its main point is timing. Districts should define the problem, the success measure and staff workload before procurement, then run rollouts through change champions and a council that reviews significant technology changes.

  • 01CoSN’s toolkit pushes planning before procurement: define the problem, affected groups, timeline, and success measures, and account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue.
  • 02The toolkit urges leaders to account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue before procurement or a districtwide rollout.
  • 03After launch, districts should track adoption indicators, review feedback and help requests, keep refresher training going, and conduct a post-implementation review.

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says its Classroom integration reaches most K-12 and higher ed LMS platforms. Copyleaks says Instructure recently named it a top-tier strategic sales partner, and it describes a partnership with D2L Brightspace that broadens access for colleges and universities. For schools, key choices include billing on the LMS invoice and AI Sensitivity settings that align thresholds with policy.

  • 01When nearly nine in ten students use AI for schoolwork, the sensitivity threshold a school sets in Copyleaks works as its AI policy, written in software.
  • 02Copyleaks says the integration brings it to learning management systems used by approximately 80% of the K-12 market and 95% of higher education institutions. That is the ceiling on who could turn it on, not a count of paying schools.
  • 03Before scanning against Copyleaks' Shared Data Hub, institutions decide whether student papers join a pool shared with other institutions. The API can limit comparisons to the school's own submissions and permanently purge documents.
