Our Keynote Speaker

Jeff Goumas is a lifelong educator who after hitting the 20-year mark as a Chicago resident last year, finally decided to start saying “Illinois” when asked “Where are you from?” Originally from New Hampshire where he started his career as an elementary teacher, he has spent two decades in pursuit of making instructional resources meaningful and useful, a journey that has taken him from educational publishing to freelance writing to founding the nonprofit organization CrowdED Learning, now a World Education initiative.
A self-proclaimed anti-technology technologist, he is passionate about leveraging technology purposefully to increase access to quality instructional content while maintaining the importance of the human and social connection that is critical to teaching and learning.
