1. Inventory Dashboard: Managing EdTech with Data-Driven Precision

The Inventory Dashboard empowers administrators to get a clear picture of how EdTech is used across their district. Here’s what you can do with it:

  • Track Usage by Building or Grade Level: Filter data to see which tools are used most by specific groups. This is especially helpful for sharing insights with principals or department leads.
  • Identify Redundant Tools: Spot overlaps in your digital toolset and make informed decisions about which tools to keep or retire, saving both time and budget.
  • Ensure Safety and Compliance: Check if unapproved tools are in use and take action to protect students and staff.

Best Practices:

  • Schedule regular checks (weekly, monthly, or quarterly) to ensure you’re staying on top of tool usage.
  • Share data with relevant stakeholders, such as curriculum teams or building administrators, to drive meaningful discussions about tool effectiveness.
