Micah Miner,
Administrator,
Educational Thought Leader, and Writer

Welcome! For over two decades, I’ve dedicated my career to empowering students and educators. From teaching incarcerated youth to leading as a school and district administrator, my work has focused on creating inclusive learning environments where diversity is celebrated, and every student thrives.

Leadership in Instructional Technology, Curriculum, and Social Studies

As the Director of Technology for a K-8 school district in Chicagoland’s northern suburbs, I bring a unique blend of expertise in technology, curriculum, and leadership. My experience includes serving as the Instructional Technology and Social Studies Coordinator for nine schools and leading as a school administrator. I am driven to embed 21st-century skills into every classroom.

Key Areas of Focus:

• Empowering Educators: Equipping teachers with innovative technology and creative strategies to elevate learning.
• Critical Thinking in the Digital Age: Helping students navigate misinformation and think critically in an increasingly complex world.
• Teamwork and Technology: Promoting collaboration, emotional intelligence, and problem-solving through tech-enhanced learning.
• Active Citizenship: Engaging students with history and civics to inspire meaningful civic participation.
• Scaling Innovation: Leading InTech coaches to advance digital citizenship, AI literacy, and emerging technologies like VR.
• Curriculum Leadership: Developing inclusive and impactful curriculum, especially in social studies, to empower diverse learners.

My mission is to prepare all students with the tools and mindset they need to succeed in a rapidly evolving world.

Writer & Thought Leader

As an educational technology leader and consultant based in Chicago, I leverage my experiences to drive meaningful change. I currently serve as the Director of Technology while contributing to the American Consortium for Equity in Education and publishing with Times 10 Publications. My writing amplifies the call for educational equity and high-quality learning for every student.

I actively engage with professional communities as an ISTE Community Leader, CoSN and IETL member, and Founding Member of the Human Intelligence Movement. These roles fuel my passion for exploring emerging tech trends and shaping critical conversations about the future of education.

Championing Equity in Education

Equity and access have been central to my career. Whether advocating for education policy at the national level, leading transformative technology initiatives, designing engaging curriculum, or fostering critical thinking in social studies and digital literacy, my work always focuses on expanding opportunities for all students.

Inspiring Change Through Leadership & Writing

I write to empower schools and districts to improve student outcomes and adapt to the evolving educational landscape. My books, articles, and blogs combine research-based insights with practical strategies, championing equity and ethics in education. By aligning technology with thoughtful pedagogy, I strive to amplify learning in every classroom.
