EdTech Evidence for Entrepreneurs Course 2022
EdTech Evidence for Entrepreneurs Course 2022 is calling for applications from EdTech innovators and entrepreneurs based in Africa. The deadline for the submission of applications is August 18, 2022.
The EdTech Evidence for Entrepreneurs course is designed for African EdTech innovators and entrepreneurs who want to ensure that their EdTech products are based on the best available evidence for improving teaching and learning outcomes.
People working on EdTech products are always talking about how they want to incorporate more research on teaching and learning into the design of their product, and they are keen to show how their product builds on the best available evidence. But they’re not sure where to begin. This course is designed to meet that demand.
The course, which is supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Jacobs Foundation, and UK Aid, is designed to help you enhance your EdTech product by providing practical, evidence-based lessons from fellow entrepreneurs, industry professionals, and education leaders.
