Roadmaps for the incorporation of technology in education systems
Abstract
The new scenario imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic
generated situations of unprecedented complexity for Latin
American education systems, such as the discontinuity
of school attendance, asymmetries in terms of access to
platforms, devices and virtual resources, disparities in the
capacity of teachers and students to deal with virtuality, among
others. This highlighted the unavoidable need for countries
to promote and deepen the processes of incorporating
technologies in this area. Within this framework, and with
inadequate school formats to face this situation, governments
have taken the most pressing measures in education. They also
identified relevant data that show the deep existing gaps as well
as the pending challenges in digital and pedagogical matters.
With this report, CAF proposes the development of a roadmap
for the adoption of technology in education, outlining two major
objectives:
— Development of a diagnostic tool to identify a country’s
level of progress in each of the dimensions that make up the
comprehensive approach to the adoption of technology in
an education system.
— Design of three roadmaps for different levels of progress
toward the efficient incorporation of technology in education
systems to serve as input for the development and/or
revision of a program/policy for the adoption of technology in
learning processes
