Education APIs: “We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Boat”

We're interested in exploring the more technical side in the new wave of helpful Data/Content APIs with the potential to transform education. Our presenters will be demonstrating their solutions. As always there will be plenty of time to explore how these solutions came about, and how the community interacting with them will help solve more of education’s opportunities.

Presenters include:
