Motivation

The demand and supply of EdTech products in India has surged post-Covid 19. At the same time stakeholders in the EdTech ecosystem face key challenges in making adoption decisions due to inadequate quality standards and lack of unbiased reliable product evaluations.

 

Consequently, design of EdTech and its adoption is expensive and inefficient and found lacking with respect to impact on learning. In such a scenario, stakeholders such as schools, teachers, parents, governments, philanthropists, and investors feel the need for a systematic quality evaluation framework of EdTech products to make informed decisions.

 

Product companies also feel the need for EdTech quality benchmarks that enable them to build better quality solutions. The EdTech Tulna was conceived to answer these needs and improve the EdTech demand and supply ecosystem.
