00:00 So having deployed this technology in over 60 countries, we're seeing why there is some
00:05 scepticism within the classroom and why some teachers are reluctant to deploy the technology
00:10 in the classroom. And it's usually not to do with the technology, it's a change management
00:14 issue. People are so used to delivering education in their own way, then looking at technology
00:19 and thinking, this is new. Do I have to learn how to use it? Do I have to invest lots of
00:24 time? That's an issue in education because teachers are time poor, we know that. So spending
00:29 time learning something new to then deploy that in the classroom is sometimes, it makes
00:34 people a little bit afraid. But what you then find is that with that small investment of
00:38 literally a couple of hours, it saves hours and hours of time in the future and enables
00:43 you to do what you signed up to do, which is spend more time teaching rather than on
00:47 admin, collecting data, analysing data, to be able to do the same really, really powerful
00:52 and rewarding job that you signed up to do.
