Edtech Tools Competition from Schmidt Futures

Due to a growing set of sponsors, the competition expects to award at least $3 million in prizes to education technologists, researchers, students and teachers.

Priority areas for this year’s competition will be: (1) accelerating learning in elementary and secondary literacy and math, (2) transforming K-12 assessments in both cost and quality, (3) facilitating faster, better, and cheaper learning science research, (4) drive improvements in adult learning that boost middle class wages.

For people working on the above, your program could be well suited for the competition. In general too, participating is a great opportunity to build and get feedback on your idea and get exposure to other leaders in the field.

The deadline for applications is October 1st, 2021. More information can be found here.
