Education Technology provides unique opportunities to address many education challenges in the developing world, fragile contexts and conflict environments, leading to improvements in student learning and life skills.
Technology investments have the ability to support education programming when implemented in a strategic and contextualised manner. Technology has the potential to help strengthen evidence-based programming already in place by:
- Expanding access and equity to resources and programming
- Improving efficiency and quality of data collection for monitoring and evaluation (M&E) activities
- Diversifying teaching techniques for different learning styles and abilities
World Vision is exploring ways in which technology innovations can strengthen education programming and contribute to child well-being.
