Can Technology Solve Education’s Biggest Challenges?
Manage episode 466051369 series 3237654
In today’s episode, Why Am I Talking? explores whether technology can truly bridge the gaps in education or if it risks creating new divides. According to UNESCO’s 2023 Global Education Monitoring Report, while technology promises to expand access to learning, digital inequalities persist — and are even growing. During the pandemic, nearly a third of students lacked effective access to remote learning, and only 40% of primary schools worldwide have internet access.
But access is just the beginning. With only 1 in 7 countries protecting student data privacy and many lacking guidance on digital safety, is education truly inclusive? And how do we ensure that digital tools enhance learning without exposing students to risks like excessive screen time or data breaches?
Join us as we dive into these pressing questions and reflect on how technology can be a force for good in education — if used thoughtfully and inclusively.
