Why Does Digital Learning Need More Than Just Content?
Briefly

The article emphasizes the transformative role of digital innovation in education, particularly aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 4. It outlines four critical functions of digital learning in K-12 education: creating inclusivity, promoting lifelong learning, strengthening management tools, and using data for progress monitoring. To achieve these, K-12 publishers must focus on accessibility, flexibility, and cultural sensitivity in their content. This includes adhering to interoperability standards and ensuring that learning materials are device-compatible and supportive of learners' varying needs, particularly those with disabilities.
Digital learning platforms must go beyond content delivery to support inclusive, personalized experiences, with a focus on equitable access and lifelong learning opportunities.
K-12 publishers should create accessible, device-compatible content that is culturally sensitive and compliant with standards like LTI and WCAG to meet diverse learner needs.
