With the rapidly growing infrastructure of EdTech in schools, it has led us to think more critically about the future of education and how play could be the answer in reshaping it.<\/p>\n

The system of teaching has changed little in 150 years since it became lawful in 1880. Children are placed at desks in rows for 30 hours a week and practice their remembering. They are rarely encouraged to explore, question, or connect. <\/p>\n
