This strikes me as a really strange way to define EdTech:

> In this article, I’m defining EdTech as any student-employed, internet-connected digital device; this includes computers, laptops, tablets, cell phones, and smart watches. I am not discussing or evaluating the use of digital devices by teachers.

Aren't there a huge swath of self-defined "EdTech" startups aimed at tools for teachers, and-or use in the class, perhaps exclusively by the teacher?

There are, which is why the author included the quoted clarification of what "EdTech" means in the context of this article. Is there another term the article could use that would fit better or be more clear?
