Promoting #OpenEdTech
for quality lifelong learning
What is Open Educational Technology?
Open EdTech is technology that we can all trust for use in education.
Trust is especially important for education, and especially needed when so much of the technology available in the world is designed around controlling student data and maximising corporate dividends, making it subject to exploitation.
We define Open EdTech as any technology that supports our trust via all of the following criteria:
Open Source
The most trusted model of software development
Sustainable
You can trust the software to be around for a long time
Takes direction from educators
You can trust that this technology is good for education
Supports community developers
You can trust there’s a solution for your specific use case
Supports Open EdTech standards
You can trust that it works well together with other Open EdTech software
