EdTech in Cambodia: A Rapid ScanThinley, S., Hayat, A., Thang, S., & Mazari, H. - 2024 - EdTech Hub
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 are by no means 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, Cambodia. This report was...

Gilgit-Baltistan, located in the northernmost part of Pakistan, is a region known for its mountainous geography. Its complex geography creates challenges for education, such as geographic isolation and infrastructural limitations. While technology offers the potential to overcome these barriers of isolation, several infrastructural and capacity barriers prevent equitable access to EdTech. The Government of Gilgit-Baltistan has strived to respond to these barriers by introducing a more...

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 in-service Communities of Practice (CoPs) support teacher learning and how EdTech can enhance this aspect of teacher professional development (TPD) in low- and middle-income countries. In-service CoPs have become an important component of TPD, creating spaces where teachers can share their knowledge...

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 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,...

To better understand the use of EdTech interventions as part of response to the Covid-19 pandemic, EdTech Hub commissioned ten small-scale research studies in five low- and middle-income countries: Bangladesh, Ghana, Kenya, Pakistan, and Sierra Leone. This paper includes insight into research methodologies across these studies, with particularly interesting findings on how EdTech effectiveness is being measured. A semi-structured thematic analysis further provides insights in relation to...

The sub-Saharan Africa region is trapped in a learning crisis with devastating implications for children. The Covid-19 pandemic further exacerbated the situation, with children losing an estimated equivalent of an additional year’s learning. Not addressing the regional learning crisis will have a detrimental impact on economic development and well-being and risks restricting future national and regional economic growth and productivity and fuelling social unrest. Education research has shown...
