The New Education Policy (NEP) has been received with both praise and criticism, and the extensive commentary need not be repeated here. Instead, this article analyses a part of the policy—Section 23, titled ‘Technology Use and Integration’. It puts forth a vision for the role technology will play in a new and improved education sector. It is a positive sign that India’s policymakers are finally waking up to technology’s disruptive implications for education, rightly noting in Clause 23.7 that failure to adapt “would place us (individually and nationally) at a perilous disadvantage in an increasingly competitive world”. Unfortunately, however, the approach taken in the NEP’s Section 23 is questionable on a number of counts.
