As the technical host of our recent webinar, College Board and Khan Academy: District-wide Strategies for SAT Prep, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to hear from leading educational professionals Maureen Forman of College Board, Sarah Thaler from Khan Academy, and education change-makers Diona Clingman and Jaime Grant.
Maureen Forman made a compelling case with data confirming the powerful impact of free SAT prep from Khan Academy, combined with practice tests on College Board’s Bluebook app. Forman said, “these strategies are key to improving student outcomes and preparing them for their academic future”. Sarah Thaler, who brought her extensive experience at College Board to her present role at Khan Academy, echoed this sentiment. “The transformation in students’ performance with targeted SAT prep is heartening to see. It’s making a tangible difference,” she affirmed.
Our conversation wouldn’t have been complete without the success stories from Osceola and Garland Districts, whose implementations of Khan Academy District Partnerships have been exemplary. Leveraging resources, rallying community support, and keeping the focus student-centered were among the strategies they employed for success. Diona Clingman rightly mentions, “a student-first approach has been instrumental in their success”.
Highlights of the webinar included Jaime Grant’s walk-through of the AI tutor experience for students preparing for the SAT, as well as her reflections on the role of teachers and administrators in encouraging student engagement. “Their dedication and commitment play a crucial role in realizing the potential of such partnerships,” Jaime stressed.
