Edtech is Business First; by Thomas Ultican

Don't miss this one! Tom Ultican, retired teacher of advanced mathematics and physics, studied the Ed-Tech industry, which now passes itself as “personalized learning.” He reminds us that Ed-Tech is first and foremost about business and profits, not learning.  "Giant corporations and private equity firms require return on investment. Improving education comes in second to making profits and everyone in the business knows that the real edtech gold comes from data mining. Not all edtech is negative but it is important to remember that private companies are in it for the money."
