Five Questions to Ask About Technology in Schools
Khan Academy Blog

EDITOR BRIEF
The excerpt says schools should carefully examine classroom technology because of concerns about distraction, cheating, and whether screens actually help learning. It argues that tools should support a teacher’s instruction, solve a specific problem, and provide useful data on student progress. It also says families and schools should ask for strong evidence, such as independent and transparent research, that a tool improves learning.
INSIGHTS
For coding or AI learners, this is a reminder to judge tools by the problem they solve and the evidence behind them. A good next step is to test whether a tool supports a clear learning goal and to look for independent evaluations before using it.
