Stakeholders started to look at Educational Technology (EdTech) solutions to help their students move from the classroom to online.Like most changes, people need to educate themselves on the consequences of it and the new tools available to them to perform best. This is precisely what the EdTech Book offers to the reader, awareness of the best practises in edtech from real practitioners, decision makers and founders.EdTech is not just about shifting off-line education to on-line. In reality, EdTech is what education is becoming - it will transform the future of how education is taught, perceived, resourced and consumed.Today, EdTech is one of the fastest growing markets globally.
