Focus Chat with Susan Patrick, Director of the Office of Educational Technology

In January, the Department of Education released a National Education Technology Plan. The national plan was written with student input and with students in mind. This is your chance to ask questions about the plan and share your ideas with the national director of the Office of Education Technology.
