Who we are

A society of researchers, developers and practitioners in educational technology.

Our members share a belief that evidence-based practice can transform teaching and learning across India and the region.

The Society was founded in 2019 by faculty and researchers associated with the Interdisciplinary Programme in Educational Technology (IDP-ET) at IIT Bombay, and remains closely tied to it. We run programmes all year, publish the Society Digest, and convene the annual Technology for Education (T4E) international conference.
