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...
