● Google Classroom/G Suite for Education is the most popular productivity suite in classrooms.
● The biggest incentive for educators to adopt edtech is improving student productivity—specifically: to improve student learning and outcomes, to motivate students, and to encourage student engagement.
● In the coming school year, schools will see the increased use of digital platforms for teaching, learning, and assessment, as well as the rise of personalized learning.
● Educators in public schools are grappling with budget constraints and lack of resources, while the biggest challenge for private school teachers is lack of training in new technology.
