tech & Learning magazine has named the award winners The best of 2023 competition, which recognizes educational technology that exceptionally supported teachers and students in 2023.
tech & Learning asked our team of expert judges to evaluate hundreds of nominations to select products they believed supported education last year. Each nominee answered the following questions: What specific problem does this product solve? How did your product uniquely support teaching and learning in 2023? How does your product address the challenges facing education today? The following products were selected as winners by our judges based on this criteria.
“2023 will surely be remembered as 'the year of ai,' but there were many examples of products that integrated a variety of innovative technologies to help improve teaching and learning,” said Christine Weiser, chief content officer of technology and Learning. “Congratulations to the following winners for supporting innovation in schools.”
