Written by Elizabeth Riley Boyer | July 31, 2015

More than 400 educators, administrators and entrepreneurs came together last week for the EdTech Collaborative's 3rd Annual Personalized Learning Summit. We enjoyed learning from presenters and peers alike. From teacher-led sessions to student panels to the Innovation Homeroom, it was an incredible two days.

Here's the keynote video from the Summit, highlighting the vibrant collaboration between Chicago schools, the public library, nonprofits and entrepreneurs that is yielding a tangible impact on kids.
