  • simple solution to accelerate open edtech for everyone is to support technology standards
  • open standards ensures that educators and students can determine what’s most effective
  • What seems like a simple concern of IT departments has serious implications for learning.

  • open is technology or content that can integrate painlessly with other resources.
  • Often, they’re unable to use the technology that works best for their students because they’re locked into systems they’ve used in the past or because the complexity of creating a seamless classroom overwhelms them.

      Amen. 
  • Closed and rigid learning technology can keep students and educators stuck in place and create frustration.
