EdMonks | School Innovation Frameworks
EdMonks is where educators build the frameworks Indian schools actually need to innovate.
We post the open questions in school innovation, how good STEM education can be implemented for the masses, what and how much EdTech is really needed for schools, and back the people who want to build real answers, not opinions.

Research
Six Open Questions, Right Now
No project has a single owner. Each open question is a set of smaller segments, and different people can be credited on different segments over time, not one researcher building the whole thing start to finish. Card copy should describe the segments, not “the researcher working on this.”

Why we exist
Most effort in this space improves what already exists. Very little of it asks whether what exists is the right thing at all.
After several years inside schools, and the businesses that serve them, we think Indian education needs disruptive innovation, not another efficiency pass. That’s the only reason EdMonks exists.
