🔎 Google: Spartanburg

Landrum and Mabry Middle schools in Spartanburg’s District 1 have been selected to participate in a one year pilot program pioneered by Google in partnership with the nonprofit Digital Promise, and EdTechTeam, a network of technology educators.

The Dynamic Learning Project will focus on new technology-driven learning initiatives in the classroom and fostering an atmosphere of exploratory learning to prepare students for the future. Kelli Coons and Christin Edge are two former teachers who will serve as “coaching fellows” to work with Landrum and Mabry teachers on the best practices and instruction for tech use. Both schools will also receive mentoring and ongoing professional development through the program.
