Global Learning/EdTech Landscape

By Vincent Dong on May 19, 2019

Education is a complex and fragmented sector, and operating at various aspects, ranging from the global, national, local to the personal level. As an excellent analytical framework, the Cube offers six dimensions to help us understand learning technology ventures in terms of their definitive market/product features and relationships.

However, information about the innovation that is currently occurring throughout the frontiers of education is anchored in its local levels, making accessing, understanding and learning from innovations undertaken elsewhere very difficult.

As one of the world’s most innovative growth companies recognized by Forbes in 2014, Navitas has worked with entrepreneurs, educators, institutions and governments, and mapped 26 clusters of innovation across 15,000 companies in the next generation learning lifecycle and $50 billion of educational investment around the world. The outcome, the Global EdTech Landscape 3.0, offers over 60 pages of market maps and profiles, including analysis of each cluster on the dimensions of scale, investment, traction and disruptive potential.

Apart from the six dimensions of the Cube, this map offers new facets and insight on business innovation occurring in stages of the learning lifecycle, various educational market segments and different geographical locations.

Here is the detailed report.
https://www.navitasventures.com/insights/landscape/

The latest version, the 2019 Global Learning Landscape was built around 50 core clusters along a learning journey. From knowledge and curriculum to engagement, assessment, workforce and talent, the Global Learning Landscape is inspired by design thinking, following the learner from early childhood to lifelong learning.  With this map in hand, we can have a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the educational changes that are taking place around the world.

This market provides educators, technology specialists, and venturers with incredible valuable information that curate the current trend in EdTech. The usefulness of this market has no limit but the interest of its users. As an educator, this market will inform you on the different EdTech solutions that enhance teaching and learning, on the possible evolution and development in learning styles which is useful for educational and instructional planning. With the general interest being to look into technology to support and enhance learning, this market projection is a good starting point in exploring, researching and reinforcing ideas that enmesh technology, teaching and learning styles, and instructional design learning (UDL) standards.

The first resource posted here, the Global EdTech Landscape 3.0 (GEL), fits all the requirements for a good market projection resource: it’s based on extensive research, utilizing innovative technology (along with human components) to analyze, compare and group (cluster) existing EdTech companies; it assigns a self-defined “traction” level of these clusters of companies, a rating that is assigned to each cluster based on the momentum they are generating in making innovations to the traditional method (a sort of predictive measure of future success/industry direction); and it also compares the potential each of these clusters are to disrupt the status quo of the traditional education model (also a forward-thinking, predictive measure). Unfortunately, the second resource, The 2019 Global Learning Landscape (GLL), breaks away from the projection model and is more focused on highlighting further divided segments of the EdTech landscape and the companies filling those roles. After reading GEL, I was curious to see what an updated model would look like – how investment, “traction”, and “disruptive potential” metrics had shifted – but a different direction was taken and that information wasn’t provided. That said, I think these two resources are great for anybody with a vested interest in education, whether professional educators or venturers, even if only for the vast collection of innovative EdTech companies they feature and categorize. I spent a probably an equal portion of time (or more) investigating different companies/programs highlighted as I did reading the actual resources. It is very beneficial to understand what’s currently on the market, whether to use yourself in a teaching role, or so that you can discover needs/niche markets and further innovate yourself. As both an educator and potential future venturer, I can see myself going back to both resources to further investigate the companies and technologies highlighted, despite the uncertainty of whether updated market projections will one day be provided.
