Part of my software knibl - nibble - is called 'knibl lobster'. It aims at complimenting the FoodEd industry. Consequently this is an area I'm very interested in. So I'm all ears to learn about EdTech
In most cases no. People make all kind of "new" stuff but its the same. New certificates that are near nothing and most its copied from Google.
The only thing that didn't changed because the education ministry does not have entrepreneur mindset we are not trained to be human rather to be a Robot. there should be startups which change this system.
No, education shouldn't be affordable because students and their parents stop appreciate it. There is the following quote attributed to an ancient Greek physician Hippocrates " Do not treat for free, because those who are treated for free cease to value their health" The same should be applied to education
Education changed the day tech took over the world's major sectors of the economy. The problem is not with education but the system. Billions are undergoing indoctrination that will later pay off a hand to mouth way of life
The education system is generally obsolete. Classic learning is oriented to the worst students, takes too much time and it is too far from the real application of knowledge. Also, university programs change too slowly and are always obsolete. The universities, like all the big bureaucratic systems, are dedicated rather to supplying their own existence and status, than their efficiency.
Modern edtech companies provide awful education quality because their business models do not include efficiency as a parameter of success at all. They exploited the idea, that people want to get affordable knowledge for practical application. But instead of giving people what they really need, they just make them study the things, more than 50% of which will be never practically used.
Noone practices an individual approach to the students, though many declare that. This is a lie.
The classic methods should be terminated as the most advance tools and e-learning materials are available. With the growth of IT many education institutions are providing e-learning materials and services to students. These resources and this system helps to understand the core concepts of different chapters and subjects and save help instructors to teach student by visualizing the syllabus.
