Union Budget 2023: Access to digital infra, funding for schools to partner with EdTechs
“The recent chatter around ChatGPT has raised concerns about ethics, cheating and plagiarism. Today’s kids are ‘digital natives’ and we need to invest in how they access, process, and promulgate information they gain from digital spaces in a manner that is healthy and non-obstructive to their overall well-being,” Gautam Nimmagadda, Founder & CEO, Quixy said.
“While tax exemption of emerging EdTechs is a welcome move, academic partnerships with EdTech companies should not just be limited to universities. Schools in the K-12 sector should also get adequate funding and infrastructure to partner with emerging EdTech companies to train students and staff on digital literacy, sustainability, health and nutrition in an effort to truly make them ‘future-ready’,” He added.
