On this episode of the TeacherCast Podcast, I sit down with Microsoft Product Manager, Matt McGinnis to learn about Microsoft School Data Sync, the powerful free application that allows school districts to sync their student data directly from their Student Information System. \xa0If you are an IT Director, or a Director of Technology, this is certainly the perfect show for you. During the show, Matt walks us through a typical school situation where\xa0School Data Sync is being used to create a seamless path from a SIS through a new application called Intune for Education so that teachers can have accurate class rosters, up to date OneNote Class Notebooks, and a dynamic and student centered learning environment using the new Microsoft Classroom.
