[quote=Anonymous]In all fairness, look at the results from Alpha School (entirely based on edtech during the "normal" school day, which is about 2 hours long) and then they move into "project based life skills" for the remainder of the school day, where kids are learning about entrepreneurship, financial literacy, storytelling and public speaking, leadership, etc.. Their kids are scoring in the top 1% on all forms of standardized testing, between state exams like SOL/Regents to SATs/ACTs/APs. So, I don't think edtech itself that is the problem--it's the lack of truly good edtech curriculum and the wherewithal to know how to build an edtech-based school day where you the most bang for your buck.
