The EdTech Checkup: Diagnosing the Health of Technology in Your School

Is the technology in your school healthy, or quietly showing symptoms of trouble? This poster presentation uses a doctor's visit framework to help school leaders assess their EdTech ecosystem without requiring deep technical expertise. Explore three core diagnostic areas: Infrastructure Vital Signs, including device lifecycle and network reliability; Governance and Risk Health, covering acceptable use, data responsibility and AI readiness; and Instructional Alignment, ensuring technology investments support teaching and learning. Rather than focusing on specific tools, the presentation equips you with practical indicators, common warning signs and key questions to guide evaluation and decision-making. Learn to recognize the financial, operational and compliance risks that emerge when systems are misaligned or outdated, and apply a diagnostic framework to determine when deeper assessment or intervention is needed. Discover how structured IT and EdTech assessments serve as preventative care, and leave with immediately applicable templates and tools to identify risks early, prioritize resources and make more strategic investments.
