We readily ask: is the digital trade-off worth it? But do we ask with the same rigour: is the analogue trade-off worth it? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The silver lining of a polarised debate is that it can open space for new ways of doing things. As the discussion about EdTech and AI in schools is increasingly reduced to wholesale adoption or wholesale bans, I see an opportunity to develop better standards for both adopting and restricting educational resources. Those standards, however, need to begin with a careful articulation of what we actually mean by education. If we start there, we may find that some of the apparent disagreement is less
What a new South African study teaches us about engaging families in digital reading (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new mixed-methods study conducted by the International Centre for EdTech Impact in South Africa offers important evidence about how families use BookSmart, what encourages sustained participation, and how digital reading may support young children’s development.BookSmart is a free digital reading platform, powered by Worldreader, a global tech nonprofit on a mission to get families reading. In South Africa, it is available through MoyaApp, enabling families to access books without paying for m
What Does Good Evidence of EdTech’s Impact Look Like? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This year’s UNESCO Digital Learning Week brought many insightful and energising discussions and this blog post is by no means intended as a comprehensive overview of everything that was debated in Paris. Take it rather as my short reflection on one question that kept resurfacing across several sessions I attended or spoke at: If decisions about whether and how to use EdTech in classrooms should hinge on evidence of its impact, what actually counts as good evidence?It has become increasingly clea

Generative AI entered schools globally at remarkable speed. In many places, the conversation moved almost immediately from “Should we use genAI?” to “How do we train teachers to use these tools?” Adoption became the default trajectory across many countries and school districts.In Norway, on 19 June 2026, the Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre announced a gradual, age-tiered and deliberately restrictive approach to generative AI in schools. Issued through the Directorate for Educat
From Frameworks to Indices (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you follow educational news, you will encounter no shortage of claims about whether EdTech improves children’s learning or whether it does not. What remains in much shorter supply is the evidence needed to assess those claims with confidence. We cannot meaningfully establish that a technology influences learning unless we can also define, observe and measure that influence with sufficient precision.A challenge I have repeatedly encountered in my work is that our capacity to evaluate EdTech ha
