Current traditional classrooms, in which phones are banned and internet is taboo, students seem to be losing interest in the orthodox methods of teaching. Believe or not, most of the modern era’s students get their information from the internet: Wikipedia, Reddit, and Cliffnotes are common go-to websites for them. So, to pretend that the age-old technique of a teacher passing knowledge to students via the blackboard-chalk apparatus is going to stand the test is akin to the phrase “putting all your eggs in one basket”.

EdTech Solutions

When a school decides to adopt technology for the betterment of the standards of education, as a teacher and a guardian, there are aspects to look into. Is the school doing this just for the sake of involving technology in the curriculum or is it actually going to enhance the quality of the teaching-learning process? What is the technology bringing to the table in terms of enhancements for all the stakeholders; especially for the teaching staff and pupils? Are the educational tools within the budget of the school and are they powered by the latest cutting-edge technology in the market?
