Google Discreetly Acquires Edtech Analytics Company BrightBytes | #Acquisitions | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

Google has silently acquired a widely-used K-12 data and analytics company.

The tech giant confirmed, in an email to EdSurge, that it's picked up BrightBytes for an undisclosed amount.

The acquisition does not appear to have been publicly announced. And Google declined to provide any details, including when the sale had taken place.

But an email about the deal sent by Google to a school district in early May, obtained by EdSurge, cites May 17th as the expected date of the transaction.

The acquisition will help Google to transform school district data “into actionable intelligence to improve the academic and overall well-being of all students,” the email says.

It also states that Google might have updated the policy and privacy terms of use after the acquisition.
