This special edition of the podcast was recorded on Thursday, February 11, 2021, at the virtual Pennsylvania Educational Technology Expo and Conference (PETE&C). The session titled “9th Grade Experience - PETE&C Edition” was held on the final day of the 4-day event which is a “statewide event that provides quality programs focused on technology in the educational field.”
During this interactive session that featured educators from across the state, some of the topics covered included
• Attendees and their 9th grade experience
• Anticipated technology knowledge for students entering high school
• Expansion of the use of technology for more creation
• Expectation of student’s relationship with technology by the end of high school
