Edtech ergonomics should be a bigger part of the conversation around technology in school, says Madeleine Mortimore, Global Education Innovation and Research Lead for Logitech. The era of one-to-one devices and ever-present classroom technology has brought with it many learning opportunities for students but also a good deal of physical discomfort due to poor edtech ergonomics.
“We did a survey with over 1,000 participants and district leaders, educators, and students,” Mortimore says. “Almost 50% of students report being physically uncomfortable with the current edtech hardware that they're using.”
