Executive summary
At the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, many governments and partners
quickly moved to provide learning continuity during school closures. For many,
2020 catalysed an opportunity for change, prompting governments and their
partners to set up national digital learning platforms. In some countries, these
platforms already existed and were adapted to meet the needs of learners,
teachers, and parents. In other countries, such platforms were created for the
first time, often in partnership with or driven by other stakeholders.

As the world turns to a different moment, when education systems around the
world are facing the compounded effects of the global learning crisis and the
pandemic’s impact on learning, with 70% of children aged 10 in low- and
middle-income countries unable to read and understand a simple text (up
from 57% in 2019 (⇡World Bank et al., 2021), it is vital to reflect on the quality
and reach of national digital learning platforms and their potential
contribution to addressing this crisis.

Indeed, the quality and equity of public digital learning was one of the central
topics of the 2022 Transforming Education Summit (TES). Over 90% of National
Statements of Commitment made by UN Member States during the summit
mentioned digital learning as a strategic area for the effective transformation
of education systems.

To translate these commitments into action, UNICEF and UNESCO launched

Gateways to Public Digital Learning,1 the UN’s flagship initiative to make
digital education a public good. Its goal is to ensure equitable and quality
digital education by strengthening the accountability of Member States
through more robust global monitoring, increased cooperation between
governments, and the emergence of norms and standards. The Gateways
Initiative will map, describe, and analyse existing public platforms and content,
help countries create and strengthen national platforms, identify and share
best practices, and establish international norms and standards to guide the
development of platforms. This report presents key findings from a global
mapping exercise of national digital platforms conducted by EdTech Hub
following a Helpdesk request by UNICEF. The report fills a key gap in the
literature by capturing key information, including but not limited to the
number of platforms available and how platforms are accessed (web-based or
mobile?). It looks at whether platforms have working links and updated
content, whether they are available offline, and inclusive and accessible to
children with disabilities. This global mapping of national digital platforms is

one of UNICEF and the EdTech Hub’s contributions to one of the key
objectives of the Gateways e Gateways Initiative. Key findings from the
mapping exercise were already socialised in UNICEF’s “Pulse Check on Digital
Learning” (⇡UNICEF, 2022b). In this report, we provide detail about the
methodology, additional findings, and lessons learnt from case studies
selected from countries in different regions.

A first of its kind, the mapping exercise focused on examining three key areas
of availability, usability, and inclusivity in digital learning platforms available
to students and teachers in 184 countries. The mapping exercise covers a wide
variety of regions (East Asia and Pacific, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America
and Caribbean, Middle East and North Africa, North America, South Asia, and
sub-Saharan Africa) and income levels (high, upper middle, lower middle, and
low). The exercise identified 471 digital learning platforms owned, developed
and / or maintained by governments across 184 UNICEF programme countries
(see Annex 1).

Key findings
As summarised in UNICEF’s Pulse Check on Digital Learning report
(⇡UNICEF, 2022b), the key findings of the global mapping exercise are:

■ Progress on digital learning made during Covid-19 has stalled and

even backtracked in some countries — 32% of identified national
digital learning platforms no longer exist, have not been updated since
2020 or have links that do not work. This was especially prevalent for
platforms developed by countries based in sub-Saharan Africa and
South Asia.
■ Only 33% of platforms had content a student could interact with. This
is the case despite interactivity being a central component of
student-focused learning and a core characteristic of the quality of
digital learning solutions. Most platforms offered only static content,
such as PDFs of textbooks. Where available, interactive content takes the
form of quizzes, comments on videos, forums, messaging apps and
chatbots.
■ Just 22% of digital learning platforms contained features for
accessibility for children with disabilities. Further, many of the
features observed were rudimentary (e.g., closed captions on videos).
Notably, most of the platforms that contain accessibility features
were also mobile-accessible.
■ Only 30% of platforms offer offline functionality (e.g., the option to
download videos for offline use or to use a mobile app while not

connected to the internet). In terms of equity, this functionality is

critical, with almost half of the world’s population still offline.
Forty-nine per cent of high-income and 33% of middle-income
countries have platforms that offer offline functionality. In contrast,
only 18% of low-income countries offer the same — even though this
functionality is more critical in low-income countries.
■ Sixty-five per cent of the countries surveyed have more than one
platform. The two most common types of platforms are
1. Resource hubs that collate existing content from other
platforms and sources
2. Learning management systems (LMS), such as Moodle or the
Learning Passport, with digital courses for various grades and
subjects.
■ Eighty-five per cent of platforms were accessible on a basic
smartphone — having passed the Google Mobile-Friendly Test and
assessed for compatibility on a USD 30–50 Android smartphone.2 Mobile
accessibility continues to be a critical factor for digital learning platforms,
as mobile phones are the most common device available for digital
learning in low- and middle-income countries.
■ Most digital learning platforms (84%) offered features across all the
respective countries’ national languages.
Findings on the availability, usability, and inclusivity of national digital learning
platforms are summarised in Table 1 below.

Basic Android smartphones (screen sizes 360 × 800 or 720 × 1440) were used to test each
platform. The platforms were tested using the smartphones and the Google Mobile-Friendly
Test.

Table 1. Key findings from the mapping of 471 national digital learning platforms.

Findings

Availability ✅ Platforms around the world: 89% of the 184

mapped countries had at least one national digital
learning platform

✅ Mobile accessible: 85% of platforms can be

accessed via a basic smartphone

✅ Diversity of languages: 84% of platforms offered

features using all of a country’s national languages

➡️ Limited offline capacity: 49% of high-income

countries had platforms with offline functionality,
while only 18% of low-income countries offered the
same

Usability ✅ Easy access: 68% of platforms could be accessed

without an account

➡️ Interactivity: Only 33% of platforms contained

content that users could interact with (e.g., chatbots,
forums, games). However, levels of interactivity were
higher in South Asia and East Asia and Pacific regions,
where 63% of countries had at least one platform that
contained interactive content.

➡️ Out-of-date platforms: Of the identified platforms,

32% no longer exist, have not been updated since
2020 or have links that do not work. Out-of-date
platforms are especially prevalent in sub-Saharan
Africa and South Asia: 43% of countries in sub-Saharan
Africa and South Asia did not have a platform that had
been updated after 2020

Inclusivity ➡️ Limited features: 22% of the identified platforms

contained features to support accessibility for children
with disabilities (e.g., colour contrast, closed captions).
29% of low-income countries had platforms that were
inclusive for children with disabilities, compared to
49% of high-income countries

Lessons learnt

Lessons learnt from case studies (see Section 4) included:

■ Ensuring both online and offline functionality in platforms is an

important mechanism to reach students now, while simultaneously
engaging in longer-term efforts to strengthen a country’s information
and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure.

■ Chatbots can help create an interactive and personalised user

experience for students. Chatbots can directly answer students'
questions and refer them to relevant resources and videos to
supplement their learning. Students can access a customised learning
path by engaging with a chatbot at their preferred pace.

■ Platforms designed to be accessible and engaging for all learners should

include both

1. Content that is inclusive (e.g., reading assignments spotlighting

girls).
2. Features such as playing audio files, adjusting text size, and
adjusting brightness levels.

The mapping exercise showcased many noteworthy efforts by governments

and partners worldwide to reach learners in the wake of the Covid-19
pandemic. Leveraging what has been done and what already exists, sustained
initiatives are now required to ensure that national digital learning platforms
remain up-to-date and interactive. The design, implementation, and iteration
of such platforms should further consider marginalised learners, including
those with limited access to the internet.

We recognise that the landscape of digital learning platforms is constantly

changing. This report serves as a snapshot in time of national digital learning
platforms around the world. Future mapping exercises and reports may be
carried out to expand on this work.

1. Introduction
The start of the Covid-19 pandemic catalysed an opportunity for change within
many education systems, prompting governments and their partners to set
up digital learning platforms. Similarly, an increase in access to the internet
and mobile devices was observed during the pandemic as a part of efforts to
provide learning continuity during school closures. As education systems
move into a new phase of recovery, strengthening, and resilience, key
questions remain about the status of those digital learning platforms. How
many platforms are still functional? How are they accessed (web-based or
mobile-based)? Are they available offline? Do platforms have working links
and updated content? Are platforms inclusive and accessible to children with
disabilities?

To answer these questions and as part of the Gateways to Public Digital

Learning, the UN’s flagship initiative to make digital education a public good,
UNICEF submitted a Helpdesk Request to EdTech Hub to conduct a global
mapping of national digital learning platforms. This report presents key
findings from the mapping exercise across 184 UNICEF programme countries.
This exercise further serves as an advocacy tool to identify critical gaps across
platforms as it examines questions of equity such as: “Who cannot learn using
these platforms, and why?”

In Section 2, we describe the methodology of the mapping exercise. Key

findings are then presented under the subsections of availability, usability, and
inclusivity in Section 3. Case studies from Uruguay, Egypt, and France are
presented after the findings in Section 4. The report concludes with
recommendations for the way forward in Section 5.

2. Methodology
National digital learning platforms were defined as “digital platforms
developed, owned and / or maintained by national governments that are
designed and used for educational purposes.” The list of mapped countries in
this study consisted of UNICEF programme countries. A total of 184 countries
across all regions of the world (see Annex 1) were included in the mapping.

A total of 471 digital learning platforms were identified through a web and
mobile app search on the Google Play App Store. Annex 2 presents details of
the search process and search terms used. UNESCO’s list of national learning
platforms and tools (⇡UNESCO, 2020) served as a useful starting point for
identifying platforms. National digital learning platforms were included in the
initial mapping if they met the following criteria:

■ The platform is developed, owned and / or maintained by national

governments for educational purposes. Any platform developed in
partnership with the government was included in this analysis.

■ The platform can be found through an online search of government or

other web pages.

■ The platform's target audience encompasses students and / or teachers

at the primary and secondary education levels.

All relevant platforms for a country were identified and mapped. In some
cases, the mapping exercise revealed that a country had more than one
national digital learning platform. Burkina Faso, for example, has two digital
learning platforms, Imaginecole3 and Faso e-education.4 Alternatively, other
countries did not have a national digital learning platform at all; this was also
noted during the mapping.

Following the identification of eligible national digital learning platforms, a

rubric on Google Sheets with 17 criteria points was filled out. The criteria points
and dropdown options are listed in Annex 3.

Data analysis was conducted at both the platform and the country levels.
During this process, the research team used Google Sheets pivot tables to
analyse data for each of the rubric criteria points. When analysing data across
criteria #7–16, we excluded platforms that

1. Were not searchable on the web and no longer had an existing link.

2. Could not be accessed without a free account or required a unique

school or national identifier for an account.

For country-level analysis, we condensed the data for countries with more
than one platform, including data points on the number of national digital
learning platforms available in each country. If a national digital learning
platform was available in both a web-based and mobile-based format, both
instances were counted because the mobile apps' functionality and objectives
differed from the web-based format. Counting websites and mobile apps as
distinct platforms allowed us to unearth new findings regarding the mobile
accessibility of each format (see Section 3.2). We selected ‘yes’ for a criteria
point if at least one platform in the country met the ‘yes’ criteria. For example,
if a country had three platforms, one that could be accessed without an
account and two that could not, we selected ‘yes’ for that criteria point.

Basic Android smartphones (screen sizes 360 × 800 or 720 × 1440) in the USD
30–50 range were used to test mobile accessibility (see details in Annex 3). For
a web page, this required opening the platform link using a web browser and
confirming that the content was viewable and accessible on a mobile screen.
The page also needed to pass the Google Mobile-Friendly Test.5 For a mobile
app, the team checked whether it was available on the Google Play Store
(some are only available on the Apple App Store), downloaded the app, and
navigated its features on a smartphone.

Countries were examined by regions (East Asia and Pacific, Europe and Central
Asia, Latin America and Caribbean, Middle East and North Africa, North
America, South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa) and income levels (high,
upper-middle, lower-middle, and low. This was done to understand trends and
differences across income groups.

While our methodology allowed us to gather valuable data, it also had some
limitations. We recognise that the process of identifying national digital
learning platforms is limited by what is readily available through a general web
search using Google. We did not confirm findings on the number of eligible
platforms and available features with governments; as a result, some
platforms and / or features may have been missed. In some cases, the search
may have been affected by the team’s location (United States, United
Kingdom, Jordan, Madagascar, Bhutan). For example, some websites did not
load, and certain mobile apps could not be found in the Google Play Store
based on a user’s location. Further, other platforms required unique identifiers,
such as National IDs or government-provided accounts, to access platform
content. In these cases, we could not capture all the platforms' features. Basic

smartphones were used to test mobile compatibility since they are the type of
phones most commonly purchased and used at the household level in most
low- and middle-income countries. Whether or not a platform is accessible on
a basic smartphone is a good indicator of its equity and potential to scale.
However, many households still use low-cost, basic mobile phones. Additional
research is needed to investigate how user-friendly (e.g., Can you navigate web
pages on a basic mobile phone? Is the text adapted to mobile screens?) these
platforms are on low-cost mobile phones. This mapping analysis also only
conducted basic mobile compatibility checks of the platforms and content
(see details in Annex 3, point 8). Extensive compatibility checks in the future
may reveal a lower percentage as being mobile-friendly.

The mapping exercise was conducted between June and July 2022. We also
acknowledge that the landscape of digital learning platforms is evolving
non-stop. As such, new platforms may have emerged, or existing platforms
may have been adapted with new features and functionalities after July 2022.
This information would not have been captured in our mapping exercise.
Further, some countries with higher populations (e.g., the United States) have
several digital learning platforms developed across the national, regional,
state, and district levels of government. Given the rapid timeline of this
exercise, we mapped no more than ten platforms from each country,
prioritising national-level platforms and noting countries with over ten
platforms that met the inclusion criteria.

The list of 471 national digital learning platforms can be found in Annex 4,
along with a datasheet that includes the authors’ organisation of the national
platforms under key indicators. Readers can use the datasheet to replicate or
conduct their own analysis.

3. Findings
Overall, 471 eligible platforms, including 24 mobile apps, were identified across
184 countries. Of the countries surveyed, 89% had at least one digital learning
platform, and 65% had more than one platform. On average, each country had
2.6 platforms available, although this number was higher in high-income
countries and dropped in low-income countries (see Figure 1). For countries
with more than one platform, we often observed overlaps in and duplication of
content across platforms; however, the impact of this trend on a student’s or
teacher’s platform experience requires further investigation.

Figure 1. Average number of platforms per country across income-level

groupings

Many governments provide digital learning services through global-reaching

private providers of platforms and learning management systems such as
YouTube, Google, Microsoft, Coursera, and Moodle. Similarities across platforms
were observed, especially for countries within the same region. Examples
included:

■ Countries based in Latin America, the Caribbean, and sub-Saharan Africa

were likelier to incorporate WhatsApp6 messaging into the digital
learning platform experience.

■ Fifty per cent of countries in South Asia and 44% of countries in the
Middle East and North Africa used a YouTube7 channel to support
student learning or embedded YouTube videos into a separate digital
learning platform; by comparison, 27% of all mapped countries globally
used YouTube

■ Notesmaster8 provided online courses curated by ministries of

education in ten different countries across Latin America and the
Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa (e.g., Trinidad and Tobago, Malawi,
Zambia, etc.)

■ Learning Passport,9 a platform delivered by UNICEF and powered by

Microsoft Community Training, was found to be used in countries across
all seven regions (East Asia & Pacific, Europe & Central Asia, Latin
America & Caribbean, Middle East & North Africa, North America, South
Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa)

Despite the high percentage of countries with at least one digital learning
platform, sustained progress on digital learning following the Covid-19
pandemic has been uneven. In response to pandemic-related school
closures, countries developed new digital platforms for remote learning in
2020. However, since then, numerous national digital platforms have not
been maintained. One out of three of the identified national digital
learning platforms no longer exist, have not been updated since 2020, or
have links that do not work. This is especially true of platforms in
sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Additional findings from the mapping exercise are organised by the following
areas:

■ Availability, which we define as the quantity and quality of available

platforms in a country and the resources offered by the platform(s).

■ Usability, which we define as the overarching user experience for a

student or teacher navigating the platform.

■ Inclusivity, which we define as the capacity of platforms to meet the

needs of marginalised students, particularly students with disabilities.

3.1. Availability
The mapping exercise revealed two main types of platforms:

1. Resource hubs that collate existing content from other platforms and
sources.
2. LMS with online courses for various grades and subjects (e.g., Moodle or
Learning Passport).

Eighty per cent of mapped platforms were identified as resource hubs and
13% as LMS.10 For example, Bahrain’s My Digital Library (Maktabati
al-Raqmiyya),11 is a resource hub that organises learning materials, videos, and
PDF assessments for primary and secondary students. Barbados’ Online
Learning Centre12 is a learning management system that offers free courses
from the National Transformation Initiative and Coursera to Barbadian citizens.

The availability of platforms was further examined through four criteria points:

1. Who is the target audience (students, teachers, or both)?

2. Are foundational literacy and numeracy (FLN) resources presented?

3. Are all national languages represented?

4. Does the platform have offline functionality (i.e., resources or features

that could be downloaded / synced online and then accessed at a later
time offline)?

Out of all the eligible platforms, more than half (56%) targeted both students
and teachers. In many cases, the platforms included learning materials that
could be used directly by students or repurposed as a lesson plan or
curriculum guide for teachers. Although the Covid-19 pandemic drew
attention to an increasing need to support teachers and their professional
development, only 11% of the platforms were specifically developed for
teachers. In addition, the mapping exercise assessed whether platforms
offered FLN resources, given the role of FLN as building blocks for children’s
learning and later success in life (⇡World Bank, 2021a). Forty-seven per cent of
low-income countries offered a platform that provided FLN resources
(compared to 65% of the countries globally).

Most digital learning platforms (84%) offered features using all of a

country’s national languages. For example, the Philippines DepEd YouTube
Channel13 offered videos in both Filipino and English. Based on a regional
analysis of platform languages, we found that fewer countries in sub-Saharan
Africa, compared to other regions, had platforms that used all the national
languages. Many platforms in sub-Saharan Africa operated with only an
English system, making it difficult for non-English-speaking learners to
navigate. This trend may be due to the diversity of local languages observed in
the region; for example, Ethiopia has five official languages and more than 90
indigenous languages in the country. The level of effort required to translate
10
Around 8% of the platforms were mapped as ‘other’ or ‘unknown,’ where we could not
access the content to identify the platform type.

learning content and system languages may have hindered the development
of a platform with multiple languages.

Although almost half of the world’s population is still offline (⇡United Nations,
2021), platforms that provided offline features were a rare find. Among all
the eligible platforms, over 70% did not offer offline functionality. Further, the
gap in access to offline resources persists between low- and high-income
countries (see Figure 2). Forty-nine per cent of high-income countries had
platforms with offline functionality, while only 18% of low-income countries
offered the same.

Figure 2. Countries with one or more platforms that offer offline

functionality across income-level groupings

For platforms that provided offline functionality, standard features included

options to download multimedia content (beyond just PDFs), access to
courses or learning content without an internet connection and mobile apps
that supported offline learning. For example, Honduras’ Educatrachos14 offers
options to download multimedia content in a zip format; Montenegro’s UCI
DOMA15 allows video downloads for offline viewing; and Nigeria’s Learning
Passport16 enables learning to continue in areas with limited to no internet via
a hub device (see Figure 3 below).

Figure 3. Nigeria’s Learning Passport (⇡Nigeria Federal Ministry of

Education, 2021)

Nigeria’s Learning Passport is an online learning platform that enables

mobile and offline functionality to ensure continuous access to quality
education in places with low and no internet connectivity. The platform can
function without an internet connection, with a hub device located in an
offline classroom that acts as a local server and can be intermittently synced
to an online database. Content and data can be transported with USB flash
drives or SD cards.

3.2. Usability
While we observed significant variation across platforms, many national digital
platforms were either underdeveloped or lacked a cohesive user experience.
We used three criteria for our analysis to understand the usability of national
digital learning platforms.

1. Can it be accessed without an account?

2. Can it run on a basic smartphone?

3. Does the platform include content that users can interact with (e.g.,
chatbots, forums, games)?

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 19

EdTech Hub

Sixty-eight per cent of the platforms could be accessed without an

account, although functionality and available content were limited in
some cases. Among these platforms, many required users to log in to access
additional features. The requirements for accessing platform content varied
significantly across platforms, with options including: enter as a guest; create
an account with simple information (e.g., name, email address, etc.); create an
account using unique identifiers (e.g., National ID, Teacher ID, etc.); or enter
using a third-party account from Google, Facebook, and Microsoft.

Eighty-five per cent of platforms were accessible on a basic smartphone.

Mobile accessibility continues to be a critical factor for digital learning
platforms, as mobile ownership rates have rapidly increased in low- and
middle-income countries (⇡Orozco, 2021). For example, India’s DIKSHA17 (Digital
Infrastructure for Knowledge Sharing) platform has a web-based browser and
a mobile app version (see Figure 4 below). Of the 471 platforms identified, 16
had mobile-app counterparts to the web page versions. However, having a
mobile application does not always guarantee mobile compatibility. We found
six mobile apps that failed the mobile-accessibility test but web-based
counterparts that did not.

Figure 4. India’s DIKSHA (⇡Government of India, 2021; ⇡UNICEF, 2022a)

The Digital Infrastructure for Knowledge Sharing platform, or DIKSHA, is a

resource hub offering students, teachers, and parents learning materials
aligned with school curricula. The platform’s open digital content can be
accessed using a basic smartphone without an account. DIKSHA has one
version based on a web browser and another as a mobile app. The website
indicates that yet another desktop app version will be available soon, which
will offer access to downloaded digital content to use offline on users’
personal computers.

Despite interactivity being a central component of student-focused learning,

only 33% of platforms contained content students could interact with. On the
regional level, interactivity was more commonly observed in platforms
developed for countries in the South Asia, East Asia, and Pacific regions. More
than 60% of the countries in these regions had at least one platform
containing interactive content or resources. Globally, however, more than half

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 21

EdTech Hub

of the countries (52%) did not have platforms with interactive features.
Most platforms offered only static content, such as textbooks in a PDF format
and lecture videos.

For platforms where interactivity was observed, they often contained quizzes
where students could receive feedback on their answers, forums where
students could pose questions to each other or to moderators, and messaging
via WhatsApp and chatbots. For instance, New Zealand’s AnyQuestions18
platform connects students to librarians over live chats. Students can ask
questions about different topics, and in response, the librarian provides links to
books and other resources of interest. Online courses on Rwanda's REB
E-Learning Platform19 offer forums for learners to post questions and discuss
with each other. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines’ Education Alive20 offers
quizzes, games, and options to submit questions or comments (see Figure 5
below).

(⇡Education Media Unit, no date)

Education Alive, developed by the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Ministry of Education’s Media Unit, provides educational resources for
students across the pre-primary to secondary education levels. The
platform offers various interactive features, such as games to review
educational content and a form to submit questions to the Curriculum
Development Unit in the Ministry of Education. Users are provided with an
option called “submit your own resource”, enabling the platform to
crowdsource learning resources from users.

3.3. Inclusivity
Learners with disabilities were among the most vulnerable and excluded
groups in remote learning during the Covid-19 pandemic (⇡World Bank,
2020b). We primarily focused our analysis on inclusivity for students with visual
and hearing impairments, while also acknowledging the range and
intersectionality of marginalisation and variety of special educational needs
and disabilities for students.

Our mapping exercise revealed that most of the existing digital learning
content remains out of reach for students with disabilities. Only 22% of the

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 23

EdTech Hub

mapped platforms contained features that supported accessibility for children

with disabilities (e.g., colour contrast, captions, audio content, and text size
adjustments). Notably, most of these platforms were also mobile-accessible.
Although these platforms include features for a specific disability, additional
work is still needed to cover the complete range of features required for them
to be fully accessible to children with different types of disabilities. Resources
on inclusive education for teachers were more commonly observed than
resources directly designed for students with disabilities. For instance, Peru
Educa21 includes content on how to approach teaching children with
disabilities.

Despite this limited offering, a select number of platforms excelled in terms of

accessibility and inclusivity. One example is Colombia’s INSOR Educational
portal,22 which was specifically developed to support learning for deaf
students, teachers, and others in Colombia (see Figure 6 below). Another
example is the Accessible Digital Textbooks for All initiative23 supported by
UNICEF and partners.

Created by the National Institute for the Deaf in Columbia, the INSOR
Educational portal provides learning content in Colombian sign language for
deaf students, teachers, and parents. The platform contains educational
resources across science, language, and maths, a dictionary of terms in
Colombian Sign Language and Spanish, and a WhatsApp service to send
short video and audio messages between deaf and hearing people. Each of
the platform’s tabs includes instructions in sign language, making it easier
for deaf learners to navigate.

Figure 7. Description of UNICEF’s Accessible Digital Textbooks, an innovative solution

to make textbooks accessible for children with disabilities

UNICEF and its partners are driving an innovative solution called Accessible
Digital Textbooks (ADTs) to make textbooks available, affordable, and
accessible for children with and without disabilities. By adding specific
features to digital formats (such as sign language and audio) and following
Universal Design for Learning principles, textbooks can be made accessible
to students who are blind or have low vision, are deaf or hard of hearing, or
have intellectual, developmental, or learning disabilities, among others. ADTs
have been piloted successfully in nine countries in Africa and Latin America

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 25

EdTech Hub

and have been shown to improve teaching and learning in classrooms

among children with or without disabilities.

In Jamaica, sign language, voice-overs, music, and interactive activities are

the features that will be available in the digital versions of the ADTs. UNICEF
is working with the Ministry of Education, Youth and Information, the
Jamaica Library Service, the Jamaica Association for the Deaf, the Salvation
Army School for the Blind, and Bookfusion, an open e-book platform. The
goal is that between 2021 and 2023, Jamaica will have adapted a core set of
12 picture books that the Ministry of Education, Youth and Information uses
in primary Grades 1, 2, and 3. The books are part of the national curriculum
and aim to be accessible for every child and adolescent by ensuring
narration, sign language, interactive activities, and audio descriptions of
images.

4. Case studies
This section presents three case studies showcasing national digital learning
platforms in different regions of the world, including Plan Ceibal from
Uruguay, E-Learning Portal from Egypt, and Jules from France. These case
studies were selected by the research team among platforms that perform
well in terms of availability, usability, and inclusivity (see criteria points in
Annex 3). With the purpose of showcasing a few examples from different
regions, the three case studies below illustrate different approaches
governments have taken towards developing public digital learning platforms.

4.1. Uruguay’s Plan Ceibal

To address challenges around school retention rates of economically

disadvantaged students, Uruguay invested in equitable and inclusive
incorporation of digital technologies through Plan Ceibal. Plan Ceibal is
Uruguay’s national education policy, which started in 2007 with the objective
of developing technological and educational innovations. It focuses on public
primary and secondary education and stands out for its strategic
implementation process, which strongly emphasises equalising access to
digital infrastructure.

Phase 1 of the implementation process focused on decreasing the digital

divide by distributing devices and no-cost internet to all students and
teachers. Phase 2 provided the recipients of the digital devices with digital
skills training. Phase 3 focused on new educational initiatives that leverage the
strengthened technological infrastructure. The Plan Ceibal platform24 was
created to host initiatives and tools to provide targeted digital resources for
both students and teachers and gamification of learning resources.

A one-stop shop for digital resources

The Plan Ceibal platform hosts two targeted portals for disseminating digital
learning resources, one for students and another for teachers. The student
portal25 hosts a range of grade-specific digital resources and educational
applications for students to engage with independently. The teacher portal26
provides innovative educational resources and tools supporting teaching and

learning. Both portals act as a one-stop shop for all of Plan Ceibal’s content
offerings, organised in an interactive and user-friendly manner.

Figure 8. Plan Ceibal login page for teacher and student portals

Gamification and educational apps for students

Plan Ceibal strongly emphasises gamified learning and offers a range of
features and services that leverage technology to enhance learning through
playing. Plan Ceibal’s open-access video game website, Domo,27 provides a
safe, multiplayer space for children aged 9–14. The platform observes strict
selection criteria that screen for high-quality and violence-free content. Domo
users also have access to a range of audiovisual content. Additionally, to
support accessible offline content, educational applications designed to
support classroom teaching and learning can be downloaded from the
platform onto tablets or mobile devices and operate without an internet
connection.

Lessons learnt
Plan Ceibal’s keen attention to user experience and functionality contributes
to the platform's success. From having targeted user portals to providing
offline application functionality, the platform ensures high levels of
27

EdTech Hub

interactivity and usability. “ERY”, the platform’s chatbot, can be accessed using
student identification, further enhancing the user experience. This model is
replicable and applicable to other learning environments that aspire to
motivate and retain users. The success of Plan Ceibal was especially evident
during the Covid-19 pandemic, based on high levels of connectivity28 and the
prior development of both the EdTech policy and the platform.

4.2. Egypt’s E-Learning Portal

In Egypt, interest in digital learning has been driven by both the need to
deliver learning virtually in response to Covid-19-related school closures and
the possibility of providing out-of-school children (OOSC) with learning
materials through digital platforms. According to the Egyptian Cabinet's
Vision for Sustainable Development 2030 (⇡Information and Decision Support
Center, 2021), “the education system is still unable to accommodate less than
half of the population of school age.” In light of existing gaps, the Egyptian
Ministry of Education’s E-Learning Portal29 is one of several national digital
learning platforms that the Ministry of Education (MoE) has developed and
maintained in the last decade to deliver learning to OOSC. The platform has
proved critical as a content repository in the wake of Covid-19.

A repository of varied content

The E-Learning Portal provides educational content covering the curriculum
for pre-primary, primary, and secondary levels. The platform also includes
some additional resources not covered by the curriculum. These are organised
by grade level, making navigation easier for users. The content hosted on the
platform includes different types of resources (including digitised books,
sample tests, maps, guides for teachers, and programmes). It is presented in a
wide range of media formats (PDF, audio, video, games, etc.).

In 2020, 86% of the population in Uruguay used the internet (⇡World Bank, 2020a).

English skills on Egypt’s E-Learning Portal

Accessible content for children with disabilities

The Ministry’s E-Learning Portal is designed to be accessible by all learners
and includes inclusive resources. Providing audio resources is a significant step
towards ensuring accessible content for deaf and hard-of-hearing students is
available. The platform’s content repository includes audio files; however, it is
worth noting that not all platform content offers this feature. The website also
includes options for different text sizes and different levels of brightness, both
of which can help make the content accessible for visually impaired learners.

Figure 11. Options on the E-Learning Platform to change the website’s

brightness

Lessons learnt
The E-Learning Portal places concerted effort on providing learning materials
with interactive elements to accommodate learners across a range of
disabilities. For example, the website includes interactive Adobe Flash-based
games for various subjects and grades to meet learners’ different learning

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 30

EdTech Hub

styles and interests. Additionally, it offers basic accessibility features to reach

hard-of-hearing learners and learners who have low vision.

As of July 2022, many learning resources on the E-Learning Portal are

unavailable (or available only after overcoming some difficulties); the platform
is one of many we found in our mapping exercise that has not been fully
updated since 2020. Additionally, a large amount of content on the E-Learning
Portal requires the use of Adobe Flash Player, which Adobe has not supported
since December 2020. While it is possible for learners to use a simulator (e.g.,
Ruffle)30 to run this content online, they will need to be educated about this
option and trained in how to use it safely, especially in light of security risks
and vulnerabilities (⇡Rudolph et al., 2014). Given the variety and richness of the
content available on the platform, it may be worthwhile to upgrade the
website’s content so that it uses HTML5 standards in place of Flash.

4.3. France’s Jules

The CNED (Centre national d'enseignement à distance)31 developed and
launched Jules,32 a digital learning platform commissioned by the French
Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports. The platform uses a
custom-developed AI-enabled chatbot to provide students with quick
resources and answers to their questions. With the primary objective of
assisting students with homework and educational exercises, Jules offers an
innovative approach to enhancing student autonomy and encouraging the
development of research skills.

The platform was piloted in 2020 with content for two subjects: French and
mathematics. As of 2022, it has grown to include content on history,
geography, physics, chemistry, and life and earth sciences. The platform
mainly operates in French, with a few features in English.

An interactive chatbot experience

The platform is designed to be an interactive and personalised experience for
users. When users first access the platform, the chatbot prompts them to
share their grade level and general area of inquiry (based on a list of choices or
an open-ended response). The chatbot then provides a wide range of
multimedia content, such as videos and audio clips, as well as further
branching options tailored to the user's needs. The chatbot only provides
content related to the user's specifications and limits the volume of content

presented at any given time. The chatbot then nudges the user to dive deeper
into any particular topic through prompts. Additional content is provided
upon request by the user.

Figure 12. Content customised to the student’s educational level

(marked in green)

Access to learning support

Jules is provided free of charge so that any French-speaking user can access
its resources. Access to Jules does not require creating an account or any
authentication. The platform saves user progress based on their IP address to
help ensure the continuation of learning. Additionally, with students with
visual impairments in mind, the platform offers features such as voice
recognition for students to ask questions, oral answers recited by the platform,
and enhanced text size, among others (see Figure 13 below).

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 32

EdTech Hub

Figure 13. Accessibility features offered by Jules (highlighted in red)

Lessons learnt
The Jules chatbot provides resources based on questions from users and
sends prompts to nudge users further along their customised learning path.
This design enables students to engage in self-directed learning, going
through the content at their preferred pace and creating their own learning
path. Jules compares well to other digital learning platforms that frequently
present large volumes of resources without organising or associating them
with particular questions or topics. By combining its curation of resources with
AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology, Jules avoids overwhelming users with too
much information at any one time.

5. Ways forward
As education recovery and transformation efforts progress, it is important to
build on existing initiatives and lessons learnt from the Covid-19 pandemic
(⇡UNICEF, 2022d). National digital learning platforms remain critical for
countries to mitigate learning loss and improve the quality of education by
reaching a broader range of students and teachers with timely educational
materials and different modalities. Investment in these platforms also
increases the resources available to countries to respond to school closures
caused by emergencies, strengthening the overall resilience of education
systems. We identified four key recommendations for policymakers to inform
future iterations of these platforms:

1. Establish alignment across all national digital learning platforms in a

country, with particular attention to

a. Ensuring cohesive content and guidelines

b. Enabling learners to quickly and easily find and access different

learning materials

c. Linking the platform to government and education ministry

priorities to ensure sustainable resource allocation and platform
management.

2. Optimise the platform user experience with more interactive features

and regularly updated learning resources. The platform should
encompass both online and offline functionality to achieve reach and
effectiveness.

3. Make sure that the platform is accessible for students with disabilities.
Provide content that can be readily adapted to the needs of different
marginalised learners, such as girls, minority groups, and refugees. For
countries with multiple spoken languages, ensuring digital learning
platforms are available in all languages is also critical.

4. Develop platforms for teachers and their professional development to

support teachers across education levels. Empowered, motivated, and
effective teachers are essential to education recovery (⇡World Bank,
2021b), yet only 11% of platforms examined in this study were specifically
developed for teachers.

Our mapping exercise was conducted between June and July 2022. Moving
forward, future studies and phases of mapping could, for example, expand on
additional factors and research questions in the following areas:

Mapping National Digital Learning Platforms 34

EdTech Hub

■ Is the content open source and / or has a Creative Commons licence?

■ Of the platforms identified, which are best suited for which audience
groups (e.g., age, income levels, access to the internet)?

■ Which countries are using print materials in combination with digital

learning platforms? How effective is this hybrid approach?

Furthermore, the inclusion criteria of our mapping exercise could be

expanded horizontally to encompass:

1. Additional countries

2. Platforms developed for pre-primary and high education levels

3. Platforms with a target audience of parents and caregivers

4. Platforms used for education administration.

Given that the digital learning landscape is constantly changing, we

recommend conducting a follow-up study over the next 1–2 years. For now,
this current mapping exercise and report can serve as a benchmark for
availability, usability, and inclusivity across national digital learning platforms.
In the future, a similar mapping exercise of this kind can further complement
ongoing initiatives and their monitoring mechanisms, such as the ones
envisioned by UNICEF and UNESCO in the Gateways to Public Digital Learning
Initiative (⇡United Nations, 2023).33 Increased awareness and transparency will
help to ensure that transforming education through digital means is equitable
and sustainable for all.
