My EdTech Life / Newsletter
The EdTech conversations that matter, without the noise.
Every week there's a new AI tool, a new policy, and a new headline telling you to panic or to buy. The My EdTech Life Newsletter cuts through it. Each issue gives you something you can actually use in your classroom, campus, or district, plus my honest take on what's worth your attention and what's just hype.

The latest issue, Who's Doing the Thinking?, covers AI Overviews in the classroom, an EdTech founder who hopes you barely use his platform, and a student data breach every district should study.
Who's behind it
I'm Dr. Alfonso "Fonz" Mendoza Jr., an educator, district assessment coordinator, and host of My EdTech Life since April 2020. With 375+ episodes, 114,000+ downloads, and more than 8,500 educators trained across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, I've learned one thing: technology only matters when it serves the learning. That's the lens behind every issue.
Stay Techie ✌🏼
