Top Ed-Tech Trends of 2016

2016 is the seventh year in which I've reviewed the most important trends in the ed-tech industry from the previous twelve months. (You can look at the trends I identified from previous years here.)

1. Wishful Thinking
2. The Politics of Education Technology
3. The Business of Education Technology
4. "Free" and "Open"
5. For-Profit Higher Education
6. The "New Economy"
7. Credentialing
8. Data Insecurity
9. Personalization
10. Inequality

In addition to these ten articles, I've kept a blog for this project, with updates penned throughout the year. You can also read more about the investments that fuel these "trends" at funding.hackeducation.com.
