A National Educational Technology Call to Action

By Steven Mintz, Inside Higher Ed

The U.S. Department of Education places ed tech front and center in the effort to meet the nation’s postsecondary attainment goals. It will be a shame if the National Higher Education Technology Plan, released by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Educational Technology just eight days before the presidential inauguration, fails to receive the attention it deserves. For it offers a vision of the role of technology in higher education that seeks to radically reshape the discourse by focusing attention less on the use of ed tech in individual classrooms and much more on the ways it can contribute to the development of “a student-centered higher education ecosystem.”
