Executive summary
The aim of this article is to describe a way to enable access to high-quality education to everyone globally through re-organizing the EdTech ecosystem.
The approach is based on the notion that everyone has the right to quality education and solutions that improve learning can come from anyone and anywhere.
While designing the concept we took a learner-centric approach to figure out how all learners can reach the best learning outcomes by leveraging the technological possibilities we already have at hand.
This approach of developing the EdTech ecosystem enables communities to propose solutions to problems they see in their local context. We invite them to come up with scalable solutions that not only solve the issues in their community but could be applied globally to solve similar problems. We also ask the communities to come up with a sustainable business model to ensure the longevity of their solution. By doing this, we expect to achieve a situation where all learners have access to the solutions in an inclusive way, so no one would be left out.
For the communities to be able to provide solutions to the issues, we need to introduce the microservices approach, an infrastructure that allows everyone to propose solutions to problems in education.
The fundamental building blocks of the ecosystem are shown in the illustration.
These tools are enabling communities to develop solutions using the startup model for innovating education.
