    What Teachers Are Looking For in 2024

    A recent survey from eSpark showed some very interesting insights into what teachers are looking for in 2024 - the top of the list? Student engagement. That isn't a surprise, we've been talking about student engagement forever. It's only gotten more and more difficult to capture a student's attention in an era of quick, easily digestible content. What's new is how eSpark has chosen to approach this struggle. I sat down with two members of the eSpark team, Mary Gurley and John Jennings, to understand what they've learned from listening to teachers and how they use that feedback in their product. 🔗 Links https://www.educators2educators.com/ https://www.esparklearning.com/ https://www.instagram.com/esparklearning/
