Showcase your work at the DESE Digital Literacy & Computer Science Summit!
The DESE DLCS team is now accepting presentation proposals for the DLCS Summit on May 21 at DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Westborough (8:00 a.m.–3:30 p.m.). With last year’s strong turnout (200 attendees), we’re expanding to 225 seats in 2026!
The theme of this year’s summit is Future Ready! How is your district preparing students to be Future Ready with Digital Literacy and CS skills? Do you offer Foundational Computer Science, Dual-enrollment, or Innovation Pathways for CS education in your high schools? We welcome proposals from educators in any content area showcasing how Digital Literacy, Computer Science, and AI support student learning, whether through media literacy, data analysis, computational thinking, responsible AI use, or district DLCS implementation (HQIM, new tools and strategies for diverse learners).
Proposal deadline: EOD Wednesday, February 26.
