Summary

This quote suggests that many education software prioritize meeting the criteria and demands of the decision-makers who allocate the budget, rather than focusing on enhancing the user experience for the end-users - the students and teachers. The decision-makers tend to prioritize ticking off checkboxes to ensure the software fulfills specific functionalities, often neglecting the overall user experience and satisfaction. The quote implies that this approach can hinder the effectiveness and suitability of education software by prioritizing administrative requirements over the needs of the users.

Ah, love, let us be trueTo one another! for the world, which seemsTo lie before us like a land of dreams,So various, so beautiful, so new,Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;And we are here as on a darkling plainSwept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,Where ignorant armies clash by night.
