As of 2021, all school districts in Illinois must be in compliance with the Student Online Personal Protection Act (SOPPA), which protects student data that many be collected by digital tools used by teachers and students. District 202 maintains this database of tools that the District has a SOPPA agreement with. This means that these tools are safe to use in our school environment. The digital tools in the dashboard below are also SOPPA-approved. District agreements are managed through SDPC and posted on the District 202 webpage, which you can find at https://www.psd202.org/page/technology or by clicking the button below.
This dashboard lists digital tools, along with a short description of the tool and links to the tool and support resources. You can search and filter by tool name, age range, and by price (including if District 202 pays for a subscription). Along the top of the dashboard are other filters where you can look at tools with a specific focus: artificial intelligence, creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, communication, interactive activities, and assessments. The ITCs have resources for many of these tools, which can be found on the OnDemand Learning Resources page.
Note: Not all tools available to District 202 Staff are represented on this list.
