At our core, we are investors, connectors, and conveners. We achieve this through our Google GSV Education Innovation Fellowship, a program that provides K-12 Superintendents, Chief Academic Officers, and top-level instructional leaders with learning and mentorship opportunities. Here\u2019s how the program started \u2014 and a look at what our fellows are working on now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Genesis of the Google GSV Education Innovation Fellowship<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It all started with a simple question. In 2021, Deborah Quazzo, Managing Partner of GSV Ventures and Co-Founder of the ASU+GSV Summit, asked me a question that I haven\u2019t stopped thinking about since: \u201cWhat does it look like for GSV to truly invest in innovative education leaders?\u201d I wrote that question on a sticky note and placed it on my monitor, where it still sits today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Shared Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Deborah also invited me to join a call with Jennie Magiera, Google\u2019s Global Head of Education Impact. As Jennie and I shared the ways in which each of our organizations were growing and evolving education leaders, we had an idea: We could bring together chief academic officers and superintendents to dream, strategize, and take action at the intersection of technology and instruction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Google GSV Education Innovation Fellowship: A Catalyst for Change<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Google GSV Education Innovation Fellowship, which started in 2023, offers fellows the chance to explore emerging technologies, refine leadership skills through executive coaching, and collaborate on projects that drive real, sustainable change. Fellows were selected through a process that included a written application and a phone interview with Google for Education and GSV team members. We partnered with other organizations to help education leaders develop a district-wide initiative, or \u201ctransformational opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fellows&#8217; Initiatives: Driving Real Change<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fellows led over 45 initiatives that focused on everything from building teacher capacity with AI to improving instruction, enhancing student feedback, and preparing for the future. This included LearnKit.ai, a district-wide AI solution to equip leaders with actionable insights, and the The Level Up Lynwood project, which aims to revolutionize education in the Lynwood Unified School District by expanding access to large language models and generative AI. Insights and resources from Cohort 1 can be found in a thematically curated <a href=\"https:\/\/pages.asugsvsummit.com\/hubfs\/2023-24%20Google%20GSV%20Fellowship%20Digital%20Resources\/Digital%20Lookbook%20of%20Insights%20&amp;%20Resources%20from%202023-24%20Cohort.pdf?utm_campaign=Fellowship&amp;utm_source=2023-24-Lookbook&amp;utm_medium=Digital-PDF&amp;utm_term=insights-resources\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Digital Lookbook<\/a>. The Lookbook for the second cohort will be available for viewing in April 2025.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Lasting Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A single question and a shared commitment led us to where we are today: 50 leaders, 50 districts, and over 3.5 million students affected.
