The global EdTech industry is rapidly evolving, with increasing emphasis on evidence-based solutions to ensure efficacy and impact. However, many local EdTech ecosystems, including startups and small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs), face challenges in accessing and implementing rigorous evidence frameworks due to resource constraints. The EduEvidence.org framework, developed by the International Certification for Evidence in Education (ICEIE), provides a structured approach to evaluating the educational impact of EdTech solutions. Specifically, it focuses on five aspects of impact: efficacy, effectiveness, ethics, equity and environment. Efficacy is the key aspect of educational impact, gauged through controlled research studies.
