The Real Risk of Edtech-Based Personalized Learning - Matthew Lynch, Tech Edvocate

Administrators purchase the latest and greatest edtech, hoping that this next program will be the panacea, the silver bullet that improves scores and helps the campus meet accountability goals. Teachers want this program to assist in helping their students who learn differently. Parents look for immediate feedback on their children’s progress. All of these goals take second place to the real issue: are students getting what they need to become productive citizens? The real risk of edtech-based personalized learning exists in relying on it to the exclusion of everything else. https://www.thetechedvocate.org/the-real-risk-of-edtech-based-personalized-learning/
