CCSSO Supporting State Efforts to Collectively Pilot New Technologies
"If we are truly committed to ensuring every student graduates college and career-ready, it is critical that we readily provide the best resources to educators, parents, and students. I applaud the state chiefs who have decided to step forward to help inform the work of inBloom as it is designed to connect students, teachers, and parents with digital resources using the latest technology out there that not only protects student data and privacy but assists states and educators in making every student college and career-ready a reality." - Chris Minnich, Executive Director, CCSSO
CCSSO has a long-standing tradition of supporting states that are ready and willing to engage collectively and individually in emerging work and practices. The Council has been a supportive partner and advocate of states piloting the technologies offered and developed by inBloom. We believe that by engaging state chiefs in the development process we can be a part of creating innovative methods that improve education and ensure students graduate college and career ready. Together with teachers, parents, and education advocates, we collectively believe that in order to raise achievement, schools should provide students with learning experiences tailored to their needs that make the most of teachers' time with them. To accomplish this, we must make personalized learning a reality for every student.
Creating the systems to do this well has traditionally been cost-prohibitive and cumbersome for most states and school districts. However, thanks to advances in technology, like never before we're now able to support students through innovations like the technology resource known as inBloom.
