Gender-based inequality in access to education is an issue of global concern. The use of educational technology is often cited as a potential way to help close educational gaps and promote girls' education. However, the existing evidence base in relation to girls' learning outcomes when using educational technology in low-income countries is limited. The evidence base was recently boosted by a study in which findings from classic educational development studies were revisited and...

A growing literature base has developed from Global North contexts, showing a clear link between classroom temperature and student learning outcomes. However, very little evidence shows how this impact translates to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where average classroom temperatures are often high. The hypothesis for the research was that classroom temperatures in Tanzania are high and that a white-paint-cool-roof intervention would help mitigate these high temperatures. This...

Taking advantage of the fact that São Paulo State featured in-person classes for most of the first school quarter of 2020, but not thereafter, we estimate the effects of remote learning in secondary education using a differences-in-differences strategy that contrasts variation in students’ outcomes across different school quarters, before and during the pandemic. We also estimate...
