This session aims to prompt wide-ranging discussion around the political economy of education technology. Speakers will reflect on the processes of and developments surrounding EdTech innovation and data collection in the higher education sector, giving their views on best practice in these areas. We will also discuss the key stakeholders involved in education technology, considering: what role(s) does it play in the HE sector; who benefits from and who is disadvantaged by current approaches to developing and implementing education technologies; and what does inclusive, sustainable EdTech look like?
