Don’t forget! All schools will be closed on Monday, 10/7/2024, to allow for staff collaboration and planning activities. Have a great weekend!
Our final featured speaker that will be presenting at Ray-Pec AI Innovation Summit on Monday is Dr. Robert Dillon!
Dr. Dillon has served as a designer, educator and leader for over thirty years. His work focuses on solutions and supporting change in organizations to maximize learning. He works with schools and districts in collaborative partnership to shift thinking and break the inertia of traditional school.
The core purpose of the work continues to flow through an empathy lens that considers what the optimal design would be for students. Dr. Dillon has been involved with design projects around the globe that have included solutions for higher education pre-k classrooms; public libraries; urban, rural, suburban schools, and a number of charter and independent schools.
