What is EdTech?

EdTech (short for educational technology) refers to the digital technologies designed to support teaching, learning, and administration in educational institutions. The EdTech sector covers a wide range of products: LMS platforms, student information systems, collaborative tools (like Microsoft Teams for Education), assessment applications, integration solutions, analytics tools, and adaptive learning platforms.

In higher education specifically, the most-deployed EdTech solutions solve three big problems: SIS-to-learning-platform integration, automated class management (provisioning, enrollments, archive), and operational simplification of the digital ecosystem for instructors, students, and instructional designers.

Major EdTech platform categories

  • LMS (Learning Management System) — Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, D2L Brightspace.
  • Collaborative platforms — Microsoft Teams for Education, Google Workspace for Education.
  • SIS / ERP — Jenzabar, PeopleSoft, Banner, Workday Student, Omnivox, Clara, COBA.
  • Integration tools — like LS2 solutions that connect SIS and learning platforms.
  • Calendar synchronization — tools that push class schedules to personal calendars.
