What needs to be changed in EdTech in India?

Just a random thought which popped in my mind that when you say online classes most people tend to feel uneasy due to how online classes were conducted by our traditional schools / colleges which to be very honest the faculties are technologically challenged and lack the tools or knowledge to conduct them. It was just a joke tbh. Now however people have that idea of online education in mind which means they are completely against online education and EdTech even though these are companies who have the knowledge and technology to conduct them well and are made for online education. How can we fix this mess and do you think EdTech will survive as an industry or become obsolete in India ?

What needs to be changed in EdTech in India?

Edtech is dead, agreed. But we haven't reached the quality of output which is expected from education in India. We don't have quality outputs, most youngsters are unemployed and this change has to start from education. Byju, UA or Vedantu are the highest valued edtechs but they are not the face of what an education company should be like in a country like India. Let's leave them to the karma of their shortcomings and cheating. On a serious note trying to understand how we can use amalgamation of tech and education to get the desired result.

my frd is planning to start an edutech startup, yh I know eduTech is severely down, despite education system and how we learn needs a Big change and innovation for better india. so I request all to suggest idea, thoughts around this. thanks [hint of my frds idea: planning to certification and ranking for schools and colleges teachers and training them instead of training the students, what do you think?]

What do you think of the future of Edtech in India from the perspective of job opportunity and job security?

I have been on this journey for a long time now. Lots of failure comes with loads of learning. Each step or initiative I took has helped me grow as a person, the business guy (ed-tech, media space), and also in terms of technicalities (full-stack product management, hardcore hands-on into technology and I love user experience) Ps: currently running an edtech startup in pre-seed/seed stage Feel free to ask anything, would be happy to help even personally

Graphy has forced a 30% salary cut on each employee to achieve profitability this year. This cut will be applicable from February onwards until 7-8 months. Truly a sad time for the Edtech ecosystem.

As the title says. Have worked close to 10 years now in this industry. Can answer on how sales, marketing and operations work here. Never had visibility on funding etc but have seen the ill effects of toxic VC money
