On this episode of MarketScale Mornings, zSpace Senior Director, Sales Kevin Dougherty joined Voice of B2B Daniel Litwin and B2B Media Producer Tyler Kern live in MarketScale’s Trinity Studio.

zSpace is a highly engaging augmented reality and virtual reality learning platform designed with K-12 cross-curricular lessons in mind, and zSpace trainings are designed to ensure effective and impactful implementation of its innovative resource.

As Senior Director, Sales, Dougherty helps make zSpace the industry’s leading catalyst for education, working with partners and educators to support improvement efforts.

Dougherty, Litwin and Kern discussed what makes zSpace unique in the education technology space, the potential for powerful AR an VR applications and their interactivity, particularly in STEM education, the flexible nature of these solutions, and the adaptability of zSpace solutions to all types of learners.

“It is the interaction,” Dougherty said. “I wish I had a student sitting here to speak to that, because they’re the ones who can articulate that so beautifully. It’s as if they’re touching the automobile engine or have the frog right in front of them, dissecting. From a brain standpoint, it feels real.”

The U.S. Department of Education’s edtech guidance turns “evidence” into a procurement requirement, even without new federal rules

The U.S. Department of Education’s edtech guidance turns “evidence” into a procurement requirement, even without new federal rules

The U.S. Department of Education has released a Dear Colleague letter that changes the criteria for districts when purchasing educational technology. The focus is now on demonstrating outcomes, evidence, and proof of implementation rather than just usage metrics like log-ins. This guidance emphasizes the importance of results and efficiency in edtech procurement.

  • 01Educational technology procurement requires proof of outcomes and efficiency.
  • 02Districts must provide evidence and proof of implementation when purchasing edtech.
  • 03Usage metrics like log-ins are no longer sufficient for edtech procurement justification.
