Editor's Notes
- But for all of the promise of technology, most schools are not that different from what they were 100 years ago. Yet our educational system is a model that is still rooted in an industrial age with students grouped by age, regardless of ability, arranged in separate classrooms, and seated in rows, individually separated from one another in a type of contraption that is seen in no other part of society, but classrooms.
- We know that developing great EdTech companies is no easy feat. We have partnered with the Capital Factory here in Austin, making us the first full-service EdTech incubator and accelerator in Texas. In addition to the awesome services that the Capital Factory provides their startups, we provide an understanding and access to real educators, administrators, students and parents. We are connected to investors, entrepreneurs, successful EdTech and technology companies and leaders
- We believe that the best technology solutions are educator-driven and customer-focused. Edtech Action is well-situated between the world of education and the world of technology and serves as a type of bridge with connections to schools, access to customers from individuals to institutions; educators to serve as mentors, users & collaborators.
- Support startups through coaching/mentoring, resource acquisition, access to funders/funding, access to educators/experts, facilitation/understanding education systems and V By bringing real educators with real problems and solutions together with entrepreneurs and developers we can create technology that is relevant, useful, and transformative We build panels of educators to provide communications, marketing, product development, market research, beta-testing, sales and implementation to startups from a network of practicing educational decision-makers to define the problems they want solved and matching them with members working on those solutions to provide an engaged and ready-to-purchase customer base
