PI-00584 Digital Learning Survey

Wisconsin Digital Learning Survey 2026-27

Welcome!

The Wisconsin Future Ready District Tech Profile supports districts in evaluating and strengthening their digital learning systems through reflection, planning, and statewide benchmarking.

This survey follows the Future Ready Framework and is designed to help districts:

Reflect on current practices related to teaching, learning, technology, and leadership
Compare results over time to identify growth and emerging needs
Inform local strategic planning and continuous improvement efforts
Support statewide understanding of digital learning implementation across Wisconsin

Beginning with the 2026–27 collection cycle, this survey also includes required statewide collection components associated with implementation of district wireless communication device policies.

Districts should complete this survey collaboratively and submit one final response on behalf of the district.

Purpose of the Survey:
The survey is intended to help districts learn from the practices of districts with similar size, enrollment, and geographic characteristics while gathering actionable information to support decision making.

Survey data may be used to support:

Strategic planning
Technology and infrastructure planning
Professional learning decisions
Instructional resource selection
Accessibility and inclusion efforts
Local continuous improvement planning
Statewide technical assistance and support planning

District responses will also assist the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction and its partners in identifying statewide strengths, trends, and areas where additional support may be beneficial.
