  • Democratising education in the EdTech world ft. Maninder Singh Bajwa | EP94

    There is a lot of discussion around the role of technology in education. While there are those who are proponents of using technology in the classroom, others feel that it should only be used as a supplement to more traditional methods.

    There is no question that technology has changed the way we learn and there are many excellent tools available to educators. However, there is still work to be done in order to make these tools more accessible to everyone.


    One way to do this is by making sure that the tools are affordable and easy to use. Technology should not be seen as a luxury for those who can afford it. It should be an essential part of learning for everyone.


    Another way to make education more democratic is by ensuring that the curriculum meets the needs of all students. Not every student learns in the same way and it's important that teachers have the flexibility to adapt their teaching methods accordingly


    In today's episode, we interact with Mr. Maninder Singh Bajwa, Founder and CEO of iScuela.
