Do governments really understand EdTech?
EdTech presents new challenges and opportunities for policy makers. However, EdTech innovators and politicians have not often succeeded in establishing a successful dialogue to aid the adoption of EdTech in schools.
Three prominent education influencers and policy experts talk to Andrew Jack, Global Education Editor of The Financial Times, about how politicians need to gain improved and evidence-based understanding of EdTech to move to informed EdTech policy-making and how the EdTech entrepreneurs can help.
