At FemLab.co, Aditi Surie and Krishna Akhil ask important questions about the growth of ed-tech in India:

What does EdTech do to the nature of the teacher’s work? How do the patterns of the Indian education sector relate to the ways in which we think about the kind of employment EdTech companies offer educators using their platforms?
