Lafayette, Ind. – June 12, 2019 – SDI Innovations, the parent company of School Datebooks and STEM Education Works, announced today that they have finalized a partnership with Matt Miller. Miller is a critically acclaimed speaker and “one of the top 10 Influencers of education technology” with a follower base of over 70,000 people and author of Ditch That Textbook.
As an innovator in education, Miller provides insights into successful teaching strategies through books, blog posts, podcasts, videos, social media, in-person presentations and his new lesson planner. Miller’s book Ditch That Textbook: Free Your Teaching and Revolutionize Your Classroom sold tens of thousands of copies around the world. As a Google Certified Innovator and a Skype Master Teacher, he works with thousands of teachers every year at events and trainings.
“I wrote my own lesson plans for more than a decade in public school classrooms,” Miller said. “I was always frustrated with the lack of really useful resources in lesson plan books. With this partnership with SDI Innovations and STEM Education Works, we’ve created a better lesson planner – one I think teachers will love and appreciate. I look forward to seeing how this partnership can benefit teachers and, ultimately, their students.”
SDI Innovations’ partnership with Matt Miller amplifies its consumer audience by allowing the company to reach and connect with teachers across the globe.
