Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, December 2, at 7:00PM at The Collective Co. (400 Gannett Rd, Scituate). This is our holiday gathering and we invite all past participants of book club to come join us for some festive cheer.
As always, reading is encouraged but not required. Just come meet local parents and share your lived experiences.
Given the busy time of year, we’ve picked a general theme - EdTech (educational technology) - rather than a specific book. And, in the spirit of giving, we’re asking you to come share and swap the titles of any EdTech readings that you’ve found interesting.
Below are a few possible options:
Issues with EdTech, a dropdown menu of legal concerns from EdTech Law Center
Getting Screens Out of Schools, an October 2025 article from the Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC)
The False Promise of Device-Based Education, a myth-busting post by Everyschool co-founder Amy Tyson
Fit for Purpose? How Today’s Commercial Digital Platforms Subvert Key Goals of Public Education, a September 2025 brief from the National Education Policy Center (NEPC)
The EdTech Revolution Has Failed, a data-rich argument from neuroscientist and educator Jared Cooney Horvath
Does Ed Tech Help Students Learn?, a 2019 study from Reboot Foundation, a Paris-based nonprofit dedicated to promoting critical thinking
Students, Computers and Learning: Making the Connection, a 2015 report from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)
