β¦ Synopsis
From MOOCs to autograders to computerized tutors, technologies designed for large-scale learning have never lived up to the hype. Despite its promise, Justin Reich shows that technology cannot transform our classrooms on its own. Successful education reform, he concludes, will focus on incremental institutional change, not the next killer app.
