Biggest #edtech space is apps, app stores have no standards for what can call itself educational, most apps are garbage, app stores could do A LOT more to help consumers. We wrote a paper suggesting a ‘nutrition label’ for EdApps.

How do we fix this? We argued that @AppStore and @GooglePlay should require developers to provide information on the benchmarks in the app store pages. Just like @Apple requires privacy information. doi.org/10.1007/s11423-020-0…

Now, Adam Dubé, PhD, joins our panel to present on use of AI in the classroom, and how lessons from the broader edtech field can help inform our adoption of AI. His area of research includes how technology, including game-based learning and GenAI, augment the learning process.

As powerful AI tools are deployed in classrooms nationwide, what should parents and educators know about the risks and opportunities specific to children using them in educational settings? TODAY our #AskTheExperts webinar, “New School? Promises and Risks of AI in the Classroom” explores these intersections of AI and children’s learning.
