Description

Faith Boninger talks about how digital technologies are increasingly implicated in the commercialism of education. 

 We talk about Faith’s involvement in the long-running NEPC reports on virtual high schools, the NEPC’s fight against personalised learning systems, and why tech companies have an insatiable urge to ‘fix’ education.
