Workforce development programmes often include blended and online modalities, offering the means to reach relevant communities at scale, removing barriers in accessing lifelong learning opportunities. However, approaches that privilege issues of access, reach and scale are overlooking critical problems, such as the persistent gap between ‘what one knows’ and ‘what one practises’. In this paper, we describe the implementation of an EdTech innovation situated within a technology-supported health workforce development programme in two distinct public health systems: Nepal and Ghana. This work focused on the challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a critical area of health practice related to the burden of bacterial infections. We report on an embedded multiple case study of a health workforce development programme across participating health facilities (<i>n</i> = 12; 6 in each country). Taking a postdigital positionality and using critical analysis guided by Helfrich et al.'s (2007) adapted <i>Framework for Complex Innovations,</i> we examine contextual factors that facilitated or impeded implementation. We used an iterative process to collect and analyse qualitative data generated by healthcare workers (HCWs) leading implementation activities in their organisations. By bringing in the relevance of the health field perspectives on the EdTech, the analysis illustrates the impact on <i>implementation climate</i> and the fit between the innovation and the values of participants. It provides evidence of how the innovation supported HCWs in organising new spaces of action to negotiate wider work and learning arrangements and facilitate the move of knowledge into their practice, hence offering a potential pathway to address the ‘know-do’ gap. The paper offers a significant contribution in understanding and conducting EdTech implementation research in professional settings in complex, resource-constrained settings.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 \u0000 <h3>Practitioner notes</h3>\u0000 <p>What is already known about this topic\u0000\u0000 </p><ul>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Implementing professional learning interventions in the complex environments of LMICs presents significant challenges and the ‘know-do’ gap in the provision of health services is pervasive and enduring.</li>\u0000 \u0000 <li>Implementation research (IR) focuses on understanding and addressing the barriers to effective implementation of policies, practice","PeriodicalId":48315,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Educational Technology","volume":"57 3","pages":"746-774"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bjet.70044","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148012034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"From a ‘patchwork of platforms’ to the platformized school? The changing nature of data infrastructures in education","authors":"Luci Pangrazio","doi":"10.1111/bjet.70014","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/bjet.70014","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This article examines recent trends in the data infrastructures of Australian schools. Data interoperability has become integral to school operations as it enables data to flow between the array of applications that are used by the school and the broader school system by using a standardized format. It leads to more efficient, responsive and inclusive school processes. By contrast, a lack of interoperability means staff are called on to &lt;i&gt;manually&lt;/i&gt; facilitate data flows, which is a significant drain on a school's time and resources. In response to this issue, we are now seeing the emergence of the single platform solution, notably from big tech companies like Microsoft, with apps to cover all aspects of school life—from precise monitoring of student learning through to expense management and human resources. Interoperability is no longer an issue as all data (ie, personal and operational) is in the one platform ready for analysis via dashboards. I adopt an infrastructure studies approach to analyse the data infrastructures in two schools. I critically examine how and why the issue of data interoperability is pushing schools from a ‘patchwork of platforms’ toward a single platform solution. Drawing on interviews with staff in schools and edtech companies, as well as edtech consultants, I discuss the implications of moving to a single platform and big tech ‘lock-in’, including how it decreases educator agency and shapes pedagogical design. The paper concludes by reflecting on the impact big tech platformization may have on reshaping teaching and learning and how this could be addressed through programs designed to develop critical understandings of data infrastructures.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt;Practioner notes&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; What is already known about this topic&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Digital platforms are used extensively in schools and education systems for a wide range of purposes.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Data interoperability is important in schools and refers to the flow of data within and between platforms, as well as to education authorities beyond the school.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Schools' data infrastructures have been described as a ‘patchwork of platforms’, with data flows between platforms enabled by a lot of manual teacher work.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":48315,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Educational Technology","volume":"57 3","pages":"674-689"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bjet.70014","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147715044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
