Jotform's EdTech Trends 2026 report finds that 65% of educators use AI to bridge resource gaps, even as platform fatigue and a lack of system integration threaten productivity
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Jotform, a leading global form and no-code automation platform, released EdTech Trends 2026: A Survey of What's Working, What's Not, and Where AI Is Heading. Based on a survey of 50 Kโ12 and higher education professionals, the report reveals a resilient workforce looking for ways to combat the effects of significant budget cuts and burnout.
The respondents were teachers, instructors, and professors split about equally between higher education and Kโ12.
While 56% of educators are "very concerned" over recent cuts to U.S. education infrastructure, 65% are now actively using AI. Of those using AI, nearly half (48%) use it for both student learning and administrative tasks, such as summarizing long documents and automating feedback.
"We conducted this survey to better understand the pain points educators have with technology," says Lainie Johnson, Director, Enterprise Marketing at Jotform. "We were surprised that our respondents like their tech tools so much. Because while the tools themselves are great, their inability to work together causes a problem."
