This Rapid Evidence Review (RER) provides a synthesis of recent evidence relating to the implementation of EdTech programmes, platforms, and devices in emergency contexts. The main aim of the review is to provide education decision-makers, funders, and implementers (among others) with a clear picture of ‘what works’ regarding EdTech in emergencies. Crucially, it also aims to create an understanding of the conditions necessary to ensure the effectiveness of these interventions. Accordingly,...

This Rapid Evidence Review provides a synthesis of recent evidence relating to the implementation of EdTech programmes, platforms, and devices for learners in contexts of forced displacement. The main aim of the review is to provide education decision-makers, funders, and implementers (among others), with a clear picture of which interventions may be the most effective in these contexts and, crucially, which implementation decisions facilitate or hinder this effectiveness. We reviewed...

This document presents a review of the research landscape in Tanzania in relation to EdTech research focused on learners, teachers, or systems at the level of school-based education, excluding higher education (HE). The review draws upon the research literature, policy documents, grey literature, and interviews with key stakeholders in order to present an overview of the research landscape in Tanzania. There is a substantial body of relevant EdTech research which has been undertaken in...

This publication is one part of a series of Rapid Evidence Reviews (RERs) that has been produced by EdTech Hub as part of the ASEAN-UK Supporting the Advancement of Girls’ Education (SAGE) Programme. The programme aims to enhance foundational learning opportunities for all by breaking down barriers that hinder the educational achievements of girls and marginalised learners. The purpose of the RERs is to provide education decision-makers with accessible, evidence-based summaries of good...

This report is one of several on the research project on the Impact of GIS-Supported Teacher Allocation in Sierra Leone (Hub-Led Research Programme 3). The education workforce is the most important school-level determinant of student learning. In Sierra Leone, the pupil-to-qualified-teacher ratio rises from 44:1 for schools in urban centres to 76:1 for schools in rural areas. Meanwhile, an average of a quarter of the workforce is absent from school on any given day. This informal...

This Rapid Evidence Review provides a synthesis of evidence related to the use of educational technology for building climate resilience within education systems in low- and middle-income countries. The primary objective of the review is to provide educational stakeholders with an overview of how technology could be effectively leveraged in these contexts, highlighting key design considerations for and potential barriers to effective implementation. The review looked at evidence generated...

This Rapid Evidence Review (RER) provides an overview of the existing literature on the use of radio in education in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The present RER has been produced in response to the novel 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19), and the resulting widespread shutdown of schools. It, therefore, highlights transferable insights that may be applicable to educational responses resulting from the limitations caused by COVID-19. Established approaches to delivering distance...

Commissioned as a Helpdesk request from the FCDO-funded Partnership for Learning for All in Nigeria (PLANE) project, this EdTech Hub rapid scan provides an overview of the EdTech landscape in Nigeria. Given the PLANE programme’s focus on northern Nigeria, this rapid scan also assesses state-level policies and infrastructural challenges in three northern Nigerian states — Jigawa, Kaduna, and Kano. Furthermore, this rapid scan builds on the evidence presented in the previous EdTech Hub rapid...

This Rapid Evidence Review (RER) provides a synthesis of recent evidence relating to teaching practices and pedagogies for emergency remote learning. The main aim of this review is to provide education decision-makers, funders, and implementers (among others) with a clear understanding of the available global evidence on effective practices in teaching when students are educated remotely during emergencies, and to assess the relevance of this evidence for low- and middle-income contexts. The...

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 publication is one part of a series of rapid evidence reviews that has been produced by the EdTech Hub. The purpose of the rapid evidence reviews is to provide education decision-makers with accessible evidence-based summaries of good practice in specific areas of EdTech. They are focused on topics which are particularly relevant in the context of widespread global challenges to formal schooling as a result of COVID-19. All the rapid evidence reviews are available at edtechhub.org.

EdTech Hub is seeking to work with the education in emergencies (EiE) sector to develop quality standards and guidance relating to the effective implementation of educational technology (EdTech) in crisis contexts. To ensure that this work is genuinely meaningful and helpful, it is important to understand what guidance is already available in this space, and what effective guidance could look like. To do this, we reviewed existing guidance documents relating to the design and implementation...
