EdTech Hub Presents — Technology for Teacher Professional Development in LMICs: Reflecting on evidence

This launch event will spotlight two recent publications of the EdTech Hub’s TPD research team: a systematic literature review of evidence on tech-enabled TPD in LMICs, and a related policy brief. It will begin with a presentation by the research team of key messages and recommendations emerging for policymakers, TPD programme designers and implementers. A panel of 4 diverse actors across the TPD ecosystem will then reflect in turn on these findings and recommendations in relation to their own professional experiences and work in LMICs. The final part of the session will be Q&A with the speakers and panellists.
