How to Create a Student Led Technology Team at an Elementary School Level

I was inspired to create a student led technology team (4th grade) at my elementary school after my completing my Apple Learning Coach certification last March. I currently have a team of 30 student coaches and serve two second grade classrooms on a weekly basis. The goal of this team is transform students from consumers to creators through student-led mentorship.

 


This team has filled a big need for student leadership on my campus. It has also increased teacher and student confidence when creating purposeful Keynote projects in alignment with the current curriculum.
