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 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 report presents a rapid evaluation of AI-generated lesson plans currently being used in public schools in rural and urban Islamabad under the National Institute of Excellence in Teacher Education (NIETE). These centrally developed, scripted lesson plans are aligned with the national curriculum and built on the Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR) model, with additional elements of the 5E and Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) models in science, and the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA)...

This report examines gender disparities in the use of educational technology (EdTech) among students in Pakistan, with the aim of informing policies that foster more inclusive and equitable digital learning environments. Drawing on data from a survey of over 2,000 teachers and interviews with EdTech stakeholders in Islamabad, the report explores how sociocultural norms and parental attitudes shape differential access to and use of EdTech at home—particularly disadvantaging female students....

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,...

This document serves as a practical guide for implementers and decision-makers on how available technologies can effectively support teaching and learning in schools worldwide. Drawing on existing evidence of successful EdTech interventions in low-resource settings, particularly within Southeast Asia, it offers guidance on the essential steps in the early phases of EdTech implementation. The report also provides recommendations for transitioning from the initial conception phase to...

As neurodivergent learners continue to face multifaceted challenges that affect their education, education systems, environments, and practices have struggled to address their needs adequately. This rapid evidence synthesis explores the current state of evidence regarding the use of educational technologies (EdTech) for neurodivergent learners in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). The review was conducted in two phases to offer complementary insights on the topic. The first phase...

EdTech Hub country scans explore factors that enable and hinder the use of technology in education. This includes 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, and in this case, Lao People’s Democratic...

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...
