As a Google for Education partner, Project Recess provides training so teachers have the freedom to spend more time personalizing the learning experience, and less time managing it. Students can learn 21st-century problem-solving and the skills they’ll use in their future careers, with accessibility features that help every student do their best work.

 

Highlights

Santi has been selected as a coach for the Google For Education Certified Innovator Program in NYC

In October of 2019, the Google for Education Certified Innovator Program launched with an in-person, three-day Innovation Academy focused on helping new participants define, design and eventually launch a transformative project. After the Academy, Innovators stay engaged through mentorship, ongoing learning and development trainings, and special opportunities from Google to advocate for transformative technologies and practices.
