How has the community at EdTech Week by StartEd helped you?
Phil Vahey: I'm Phil Vey of applied learning insights. And I found the community at Ed Tech Week to be amazingly welcoming. Um As a learning scientist, I was a bit of an outlier, but the community was really helpful in helping me understand where the direction of Ed Tech is going, what people are really focusing on. And it helped me see areas that I was very enthusiastic to see and truthfully a couple that I was a bit less enthusiastic to see as a learning scientist. But upon the community to be just incredibly welcoming and really informative.

It was a place where I could really make meaningful relationships and that was very exciting to me.
