As the new wave of scientific, technological and industrial advancements accelerates, digital technology is becoming increasingly crucial in shaping the future of educational development. The 2024 World Digital Education Conference (WDEC) unveiled the Global Digital Education Development Index (GDEI), a measure of digital education development globally.
As the world’s first comprehensive index to evaluate the level of digital education development across different countries, the GDEI gathers and analyzes extensive public data from international organizations and over 200 countries and regions. It selects 62 countries with relatively complete data and forefront digital education progress, and is refined through extensive expert consultations.
