What happened

KOICA, South Korea’s international cooperation agency, and Cambodia’s Education Ministry marked the end of an ICT education project on November 3. The project produced ICT lessons and textbooks for grades 7 to 9, set up 48 classrooms, trained teachers through centres in four provinces and supported 20 model schools. Project materials and digital infrastructure were formally handed to the ministry at the closing event.

Why it matters

The classrooms, learning materials and teacher training may give lower-secondary students more access to ICT learning. The reports describe the project’s outputs but do not measure changes in student learning.

Background

The project was carried out with Cambodia’s Education Ministry and the Korean National University consortium, which advised on project management. The reports link it to Cambodia’s education priorities and the first phase of the Pentagonal Strategy, covering 2023–2028.

Key terms

ICT: Information and communication technology, such as computers and digital tools.
