This Learning Brief is part of the EdTech Hub Learning Brief Series, providing practical resources for people working to improve the use of technology in education. In this brief, we look at the potential for participatory methods to bring teachers closer to the decision-making table. Insights from those closest to the work shed light on the daily contextual realities that can determine the mechanisms for optimal success or failure of a programme. However, these voices are often neglected...

This Learning Brief is part of the EdTech Hub Learning Brief Series, providing practical resources for people working to improve the use of technology in education. In this brief, we look at digital personalised learning (DPL), a promising EdTech approach to improving learning outcomes, and consider how to implement this approach in school settings. We draw on work from EdTech Hub and other prominent researchers to first unpack the ‘basics’ of DPL implementation. These include the importance...

This Learning Brief is part of the EdTech Hub Learning Brief Series, providing practical resources for people working to improve the use of technology in education. In this brief, we look at education management information systems (EMIS). EMIS are pivotal in educational administration, facilitating the digitisation of processes and data to enable informed decision-making. However, persistent challenges impede their effectiveness. We examine why it is vital to consider how EMIS are designed...

This Learning Brief is part of the EdTech Hub Learning Brief Series, providing practical resources for people working to improve the use of technology in education. In this brief, we look at how decision-makers should consider cost-effectiveness when contemplating investing in EdTech programmes. Cost-effectiveness is a critically important consideration for anyone planning investments in EdTech, but it is also a complex one, which requires understanding the total cost of an intervention and...

Parenting practices play a crucial role in child development. We evaluate the impact of a free digital stress management and positive parenting intervention designed to improve caregiver’s mental health and positive caregiver–child interactions in El Salvador. Drawing on the prior success of in-person interventions, we study the effects of digital intervention delivery and examine differential treatment effects by caregiver’s sex. Using an individual-level experiment, we find that the...

EdTech Hub country scans explore factors that enable and hinder the use of technology in education. These include policies, government leadership, private-sector partnerships, and digital infrastructure for education. The scans are intended to be comprehensive but not exhaustive. Nonetheless, we hope they will serve as a useful starting point for more in-depth discussions about opportunities and barriers in EdTech in specific countries, in this case, Malawi. Keywords: Malawi, EdTech, Policy,...

The Malawi National Numeracy Programme (NNP) was designed in 2020 in partnership with the Malawi Ministry of Education and Cambridge Education (Mott McDonald), funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). Building on findings from a prior qualitative review of the NNP's programme components, EdTech Hub proposed a new phase of design-based implementation research (DBIR) to be undertaken in Term 2 of the 2022–2023 school year to refine the school-based teacher...

This paper reflects on the lived experiences of young refugees located in Pakistan and Rwanda when interacting with education technology (EdTech) during and following displacement. We offer a broad decolonial commentary on issues related to the design and development of EdTech initiatives for refugees, noting some of the historical trends prevalent in the education and emergencies sector. We are guided by questions such as: Why EdTech to start with? Who designs the products? Where are they...

This report provides a landscape analysis of available data collection and visualisation tools in the education sector in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Digital data collection has the potential to facilitate cost-effective, adaptable, timely and reliable data to inform decision-making. The value proposition of these tools, as opposed to paper-based data collection, is that they have the potential to save valuable time and resources, minimise errors, and facilitate the sharing of...
