My view is that most of the EdTech innovations that are being developed by the academic world focus on enhancing a broken system. How can we assess students faster — digitally? How can we put students in touch with teachers on demand if they are having difficulties?
An empowerment platform is a cross between a learning management system and a marketing platform.It starts its life as a marketing platform, designed to speak to a specific target audience with a specific call for action. The engagement results in a clear outcome that benefits the users in that target audience.
The future of education has to align with the future job requirements.Wouldn't you agree? Well, unfortunately, not much has changed in the education system over the past 200 years!
