In the years following a global pandemic that left 1.6 billion learners out of school, the global learning crisis has grown more urgent. Governments worldwide have sought technology-enabled education platforms that can support higher quality, resilient education systems. One cheap and easy tool for delivering remote educational support is basic mobile phones, which represent a potentially cost-effective and remote platform for adapting a range of proven pedagogical methods. To do so successfully, programme delivery should consider three key factors that include (1) careful training on delivering pedagogical methods in a phone setting, (2) Appropriate monitoring systems to ensure weekly delivery fidelity and, (3) an appropriate data and/or delivery infrastructure to enable programme monitoring. If done successfully, mobile phone programmes can present education ministries with an efficient delivery option for quality education at a fraction of the cost of higher-tech solutions.
