Our guest for this episode is Beatriz Arnillas, the Director of IT and Education Technology at the Houston Independent School District in Houston, Texas. Beatriz provides some insight into what it’s like to run the technological infrastructure, as well as the efforts of instructional technology integration and digital learning initiatives, in the seventh largest school district in the United States. She also shares with us her story of discovering the importance of interoperability when it comes to digital learning, and her efforts to ensure ease of use for practitioners in her district through interoperability standards.
