The 100 Worst Ed-Tech Debacles of the Decade

A Saturday good read: The 100 Worst Ed-Tech Debacles of the Decade by Audrey Watters at Hackeducation. Some of my favourites are "The End of Library" Stories (and the Software that Seems to Support That) [NB - these are the debacles or myths that she is debunking - she is is not arguing in favour of these things!], TurnItIn (and the Cheating Detection Racket), Blockchain Anything, "Everyone Should Learn to Code", "The Flipped Classroom" Go to: http://hackeducation.com/2019/12/31/what-a-shitshow
