eScholar Connects with Educators in Austin, TX
eScholar hosts “Educator Connection” to engage education stakeholders.
White Plains, New York, February 25, 2014 - eScholar®, the leader in data solutions for personalized education, will host Educator Connection on March 3, 2014, as thousands of education stakeholders, thought-leaders and innovators converge in Austin, Texas to discuss the future of learning and teaching.
The eScholar Educator Connection is open to conference attendees, as well as educators and stakeholders from local school districts, institutions of higher education, state agencies and other organizations involved in education. This complimentary networking event will take place at the Moonshine Patio Bar & Grill in Austin, TX, from 5:30pm – 7:30pm.
“Innovation and change require a great deal of collaboration and effort from all stakeholders,” says Shawn Bay, CEO and Founder of eScholar. “Our relationships with our customers and their stakeholders are key to shaping data solutions that improve education for all students. When we take the time to listen and collaborate with educators and other stakeholders, our solutions are better equipped to help students achieve their goals.”
Since 1997, eScholar has helped education agencies securely manage and leverage data in many ways, including the Texas Student Data System (TSDS), developed by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
“It’s important for us to be continuously engaged with educators in the field,” says Lisa McNicholas, eScholar’s Customer Education Manager and a former teacher. “We want to learn their challenges and concerns, but we also want to hear their success stories too. Being engaged helps us be a better advocate for both the teachers and students in the classrooms.”
eScholar’s innovation and vision have long been driven by what matters most to educators and students. The company sponsored a contest last year called “Make My Education Matter,” which asked students if they believed their education mattered to them and why. eScholar will bring back a similar student contest this year to give students another opportunity to voice their opinions.
