© 2018 Elsevier Inc. In recent years, there has been an increase in the demand for and supply of early childhood education (ECE) in low- and middle-income countries.

Building on results from an earlier randomized controlled trial of three different applications of information and communication technologies (ICTs) on primary education in Kenya, the Tusome Early Grade Reading Activity developed the National Tablets Program. The National Tablets Program is integrated into the Tusome activity by providing tablets to each of more than 1,200...
