The Learning Counsel
VerifiedOnline/Digital
The Learning Counsel is a research institute and news media hub, focused on providing context for the shift in education to digital curriculum. Our membership is comprised of 215,000 Superintendents, tech and instructional administrators, curriculum specialists, thousands of publishers, and interested enthusiasts anywhere in the teaching and learning field.
The Learning Counsel was founded in 2014 by LeiLani Cauthen after she spotted and began writing about the tsunami of App confusion and complexity in education. Before long she had united a group of a few friends in schools, some industry sponsors, and roped in a former Superintendent, Dr. David Kafitz, to produce live-discussions on the transition to digital curriculum. News spread, the discussions became larger events, more articles and information were demanded and the group expanded into a crowd, then a mob, and now a great movement threatening to spread worldwide.
