Creating a Data-Driven, Personalized Education System

But efforts to modernize the nation’s data systems are nascent and could potentially exacerbate equity issues. Join this panel with representatives from student groups, philanthropy, education, and innovation as they discuss how to reform data and data infrastructure to make it work for all students.
