How ISTE 2019 Is Shaping the Future of Education

ISTE continues today in Philadelphia, beginning another day of thought leadership and technological showcases.

UPDATE: 11:50 a.m. EST

This video taken on Sunday evening shows the scope of this event. It was captured by Vince Wall, a secondary school teacher from Australia.

One of the most important parts of any industry event is the educational sessions. In a field as important as academia, the sharing of ideas and best practices is even more impactful.

Instructional content platform provider Newsela shared these images of several panels the company participated in and attended on Sunday and Monday.

Company CEO Matthew Gross joined a panel to discuss the future of the academic world and the technology that will drive it forward. Industry influencers also participated in their own discussion on a number of tips and insights for educational professionals.

Stay tuned for more updates from the show throughout the day, and everyday through its culmination on June 26.
