The EdTech Evidence for Entrepreneurs Course is for Africa-based Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN) focused EdTech innovators and entrepreneurs who want to ensure their EdTech products use the best available evidence for how to improve teaching and learning outcomes.
We often hear from people developing EdTech products that they want to bring more research on teaching and learning into the design of their product’s, and they are eager to demonstrate how their product builds on the best available evidence.
