For many students, confidence gaps, language barriers, and limited access to the right tools can make it hard to fully participate in today’s digital learning environment. Addressing these challenges requires a thoughtful, student-centered approach to edtech integration.

Richard J. Lee Elementary, an Apple Distinguished School in Coppell ISD, offers a compelling example of what’s possible when students have access to the right tools. Educators there are using iPad devices alongside headsets, styluses, and keyboard cases to remove barriers, increase focus, and unlock new possibilities for creativity and project-based learning.

The results are striking: over 90% of students surveyed after the edtech pilot felt more confident using common tools and platforms, with significant gains in participation and academic growth, especially for emergent bilinguals and newly enrolled students.

In this edWeb podcast, Dwight Goodwin, Executive Director of Technology for Coppell ISD, and Madeleine Mortimore, Global Education Innovation and Research Lead at Logitech, share what worked for Richard J. Lee Elementary alongside new research from FullScale and THE Journal. Listeners leave with actionable practices to help all students overcome confidence gaps, engage more deeply with digital tools, and express themselves fully throughout their learning journey.

This edWeb podcast is of interest to K-12 librarians, school leaders, district leaders, and education technology leaders.
