The HEART Education Technology (edtech) topic guide was launched on 13 November 2014 at Mott Macdonald/Cambridge Education in London.

The guide explores the evidence on the relationships between the use of educational technologies in education and learning outcomes. It offers recommendations to help UK Department for International Development (DFID) advisors strengthen the design, implementation and evaluation of edtech programs.

This video shows an introduction to the launch event by Andy Brock, Managing Director of Cambridge Education and Director of Mott Macdonald.

Senior Advisor Sally Gear then gives an introduction to educational technology at DFID, and then the lead author of the topic guide, Tom Power from the Open University, presents the guide and its key findings.

There is a short video from Topic Guide contributor Niall Winters giving a more in-depth discussion of the findings and the interview concludes with a panel discussion on educational technology chaired by Sally Gear. The panelists are David Hollow from Jigsaw Consult, Robert McCormick from the Open University and Gary Motteram from the University of Manchester.
