About us
Education is changing, now more than ever. It is shaped by technological advancements, scientific research, demographic shifts, business interests and other socioeconomic forces that impact not just teaching and learning, but also the world in which students will enter. And education will increasingly take place not just in schools, but in homes, at work and throughout life. EdSurge is at the forefront of covering these changes and their impact and consequences. We do this through journalism, research and analysis. We also share stories that elevate the voices and experiences of educators, entrepreneurs, researchers and other stakeholders working to support equitable opportunities for all learners. Through our work, EdSurge aims to bridge the information gaps and disconnect that often exist between those who drive change, and those they impact.

Our relationship with math learning is severely damaged in this country. In 2022, only 26 percent of all eighth grade students scored proficient or above in mathematics. Even more concerning is that only 9 percent of Black eighth-graders are at a proficient level, or above. How can we change students' mindsets from a deficit to an asset that can change their future?

Students will reach for their phones during transitions, in between reading passages, whole-group discussions and during moments of boredom.

Fatema Elbakoury writes about implementing boredom in the classroom helped her students build reading stamina and find a genuine love for reading:
