EdTech Speaking & Consulting

Monica Burns is an EdTech and curriculum consultant skilled in leading professional development, workshops and webinars

Looking for engaging and actionable professional learning support for your school, district, or educators in your community? Work with Monica Burns, Ed.D., to craft a webinar, on-site workshop, or multi-day engagement to reach your EdTech goals this school year.

Professional learning focused on the essentials of educational technology. Actionable, relevant, practical professional development.

From on-site workshops to webinars, I support educators who want to prepare students to better navigate online spaces. Just like what you’ll find in my books, blog posts, and podcast episodes, my professional learning opportunities feature actionable, ready-for-tomorrow strategies for educators.
Here's How we Can Work Together

Schools, districts, organizations & special events

Presentations & Workshops

Designed to meet the goals of your next in-service professional development day or conference. Including concurrent sessions (60-90 minutes), half-day and full-day workshops, back-to-back days at your next event.

Long-Term Engagement

For organizations looking for an extended partnership over a semester or school year. Including hybrid model of virtual and on-site engagements, coaching and demonstration lessons, and general advisement.

Keynote Speaker

An opportunity to kick off your next event with stories (and strategies) related to purposeful technology integration. Designed to connect to conference and professional learning day themes.

In addition to on-site work, I support schools virtually or with a hybrid model. This work happens through:

Webinars & Workshops

A virtual option for schools looking to focus on one topic in a 60 to 90 minute webinar or to dive a bit deeper in half- or full-day workshops. Options for a series of webinars and workshops in weekly or monthly rotations.

Virtual Coaching

Opportunity for one-on-one support for educators looking for a partner to support planning and reflection around educational technology goals. Options for regular meetings or office hours throughout the school year.

Book Study

Jump into a conversation around my books EdTech Essentials or Tasks Before Apps, or explore one of my quick reference guides together with your group. Options for a kick-off event, Q&A or guided book study.

Let's start the conversation about working together.

'I've never seen staff so inspired by a professional development session'

After one day with Monica Burns, teachers were sending me artifacts, pictures and videos of student work the very next day — I’ve never seen staff so inspired by a professional development session. I can’t wait to bring her back to the district!

– Lisa Koch, Title I Coordinator, Jackson School District, New Jersey

'This was one of the best PD sessions we have ever had!'

This was one of the best PD sessions we have ever had! Monica intentionally planned material that supported our School Improvement Plan and building goals. The day was well designed with a perfect balance of instruction, reflection, and individual work time. Teachers from all content areas left with plans they could implement the next day.

– Meredith Beard, Associate Principal L’Anse Creuse High School North

'Her EdTech Essentials series was fantastic'

Monica was our featured speaker at the Oklahoma Technology Association’s annual conference. Her EdTech Essentials series was fantastic! We are so happy she could share her insight and expertise with hundreds of educators at our event.

– Donna Campo, Executive Director. Oklahoma Technology Association

My Most Popular Keynote

Edtech Essentials: Technology Strategies for All Learning Environments

In a world awash with technology, what edtech skills should educators focus on to ensure they’re making the most of digital learning? What strategies can today’s teachers lean on to help students learn to navigate online spaces with ease?

Join Dr. Burns to explore a transformative set of competencies that students can use to develop transferable skills, share their learning, and connect their work to relevant audiences. Along the way, educators will also dive deep into resource curation best practices, as well as thoughtfully engage with the importance of developing collaboration structures and assessing students with intention.

'Attendees walked away from each session with practical strategies that they could implement with their students tomorrow'

Dr. Burns led a series of virtual professional development sessions for our educators focused on building teacher capacity for virtual and online learning. Attendees walked away from each session with practical strategies that they could implement with their students tomorrow. Dr. Burns didn’t just show them an app or program, she modeled how to use these apps and programs to leverage learning for all students.

– Kurt Krizan, President of Wisconsin ASCD

'Monica is great to work with and has very current and applicable information to share'

Monica was a featured speaker at our state conference for several years. Her sessions were very hands-on and accommodated for different levels of understanding. Teachers and literacy leaders loved her sessions because they left with things they could do in the classroom the next day! I appreciate her focus on not doing technology for technology’s sake, but thinking about your curriculum goals and finding the right technology and/or application to meet those goals. Monica is great to work with and
has very current and applicable information to share.

– Nikki Piper, Nebraska State Literacy Association Conference Chair

Frequently Asked Questions
Have some questions before reaching out? Get them answered here.

I love working with educators and travel to schools and events in different parts of the world. If you are looking for a keynote speaker, featured speaker, or someone to lead a handful of concurrent sessions at your next event, let’s talk! Scroll down for a bit more information on what it looks like to work together, or just send an email my way if you want to set up a time to talk — hello@classtechtips.com — is the best way to reach me.

Although my Events Calendar above gives you a sense of my appearances at conferences and upcoming webinars, I also spend time with schools and districts throughout the school year. Some months are busier than others, but I typically spend time working directly with educators several times per month. This includes coaching and small group sessions with schools taking part in long-term engagements and districts where I might speak at just one of their events.

Yes! I love spending lots of time at the same school to develop relationships with educators who are trying out new EdTech strategies and appreciate the feedback and support. I also know that it can be hard to budget both time and funds to bring a PD facilitator to your school. So the answer is “yes” — I’d love to visit your school or district for a one-day event too.

If you head over to my blog you know how much I love sharing favorites. So if you’re an EdTech company with a great product or service to share, I want to hear all about it! Send me an email with information on how your tool can support students and teachers. Once I take a look I’ll let you know if you’re a good fit for the site and I’ll share some ways we can partner to get the word out to my audience of educators. Simply email hello@classtechtips.com to start the conversation.

Absolutely! I host webinars and virtual professional development that is tailored to the needs of a specific school. This webinar can happen before or after a site visit, or we can schedule one instead of having me travel to your school. Reach out to me directly via email to discuss pricing and availability.

If you’d like to set up a book club for your school, I have free study guides for my books EdTech Essentials and Tasks Before Apps. I can also help you get a big discount for purchasing multiple copies of my book. Just send me an email if you’d like access to these free study guides, want information on bulk purchases, or would like me to lead a book club for your staff. Email hello@classtechtips.com for more information.

Yes! Enrollment for individual monthly members of my Easy EdTech Club are open just a few times each year. If you have a group of ten or more educators and would like to sign them up for an annual membership, we can make that happen anytime of the year. To get a quote for your group email hello@classtechtips.com and share the number of colleagues you would like to sign up for the Easy EdTech Club.

Here's the plan
Ready to work together this school year?
Step 1 - Reach Out

Send me an email and let me know what you're thinking. Do you have an event coming up next year and want to book a guest speaker? Are you looking to schedule a webinar next month and need a facilitator? Share your goals in a quick email to start the conversation.

Step 2 - We'll Make a Plan

We'll connect over email or a Zoom call to chat about your goals. This is an opportunity to make sure I'm the right fit for the professional learning you'd like to set up for your group of educators -- whether that's the teachers at your school or attendees of your conference.

Step 3 - Ready to Go

After we finalize the details, we'll be ready to go! Your group will have a chance to dive into best practices for technology integration through a webinar, conference session, multi-week workshops, long term engagement or however we decide to partner this school year.
