The Black EdTech Database:
This database is a forthcoming, living, community-driven resource that will map Black-centered educational technology across research, product development, learning environments, workforce pipelines, and community-owned innovation.
This database is being created to make visible the people, projects, and institutions shaping culturally grounded EdTech and to support collaboration, research, and responsible development across the field.
A Community-Powered Hub for Black-Led Innovation in Education Technology
Exploring The Black EdTech Database
The database will highlight Black-led and Black-centered EdTech initiatives spanning classroom tools, community learning spaces, research projects, platforms, and policy-informed innovation. It will offer a dynamic view of how education technology is being designed, studied, and implemented in ways that center Black learners and communities.
Who Is This Database For?
This resource is being built for EdTech developers, founders, researchers, scholars, educators, practitioners, funders, policymakers, and ecosystem builders. It will serve as a hub for those seeking to better understand, support, and collaborate within the Black EdTech landscape.
What Will The Database Capture?
Submissions will help document key areas such as learning contexts (in-school, out-of-school, community-based, or hybrid), research, evidence-building efforts, workforce development and pipeline contributions, governance and community-driven approaches to EdTech, publications, and public-facing work. Together, these data points will create a more holistic picture of the Black EdTech Database.
