Gobee learning agenda: Our top six learnings from developing an edtech tool for emergency settings
Gobee, a prototype assessment tool for emergency settings, set out to make it easier for teachers and facilitators to measure children’s learning progress. Following the initial stages of development, War Child and NYU Global TIES share their learnings and publish the codes on an open-source platform.
THE GOBEE LEARNING AGENDA: Can we sustainably implement and scale a digital assessment tool in the low resource and Education in Emergencies sector?
Since the unprecedented shift to distance learning that came with Covid lockdowns and mass school closures, increasing numbers of Education in Emergencies (EiE) actors have been turning to EdTech to find solutions to the complex challenges facing the sector. This has led to a number of emerging EdTech products and prototypes, many of which have shown great potential.
EdTech in Low-Resource Settings: Challenges, opportunities, and conditions for success
This report summarizes the results of a survey the Gobee team launched to better understand the experience of stakeholders in the Education in Emergencies (EiE) sector when it comes to EdTech in low-resource settings, with a special focus on digital assessments and what it takes to develop and maintain open-source models (OSS) and data protection regulations.
Piloting Gobee — what we learned from the first pilot of the gamified learning measurement tool
Since the beginning of the COVID pandemic we have seen a significant increase in the number of online tools and digital learning programmes being rolled out globally. With this increase comes a growing need to find adaptive ways of measuring the effectiveness of these interventions for children’s learning.
