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.

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