Synchronized Adoption Framework to Overcome Barriers in EdTech Implementation

This study investigates barriers to effective EdTech implementation in K–10 education within India’s policy and pedagogical context. Using a mixed-method approach involving teachers, parents, students, and EdTech providers, it identifies structural, pedagogical, and behavioral challenges influencing technology adoption. The analysis highlights major constraints such as inadequate infrastructure, limited training, digital inequity, and policy misalignment. It also examines how digital literacy, device access, and stakeholder attitudes affect engagement and adoption. The study proposes a synchronized adoption framework that integrates technology, pedagogy, motivation, and policy perspectives to support equitable and sustainable EdTech integration in education.
