WHAT FACTORS DRIVE OR DOOM EDTECH IMPLEMENTATION

An effort to identify the 10 best indicators of whether or not ed-tech implementations will work in school districts is being launched by the Jefferson Education Exchange.

The nonprofit organization, whose goal is to help educators and education leaders make better-informed decisions about ed-tech, is starting an extensive study designed to give school officials a research-based understanding of what ed-tech is likely to work in their district, under what conditions, and why—and what is unlikely to work, when, and why not, said Bart Epstein, JEX’s president and CEO.
