> The modern LMS feels to me like a reinvention of Facebook groups in many ways I agree with your sentiment that there's a lot more potential value to be derived from EdTech than we've seen so far, but even if LMS's are "just" like Facebook groups, that's already the equivalent of hundreds of billions of dollars in economic value. When I was a kid, if I was sick for a few days, I had to manually copy my friend's notes after I returned to school, and would still feel confused. Now, with an LMS, I have access to all the learning content from home, for my own class, and for resources from similar classes taught by amazing teachers from across the world, at any modality I prefer. This on its own is incredible value. (although with the caveat that being sick is no longer the excuse to rest and relax as it used to be)
