The Adoption Paradox: Insights into Educational Technology's Impact on Indigenous Students in Urban East African Slums
Abstract
The rapid adoption of educational technology (EdTech) in urban East African slums has garnered significant attention, yet its impact on indigenous students remains underexplored.

Educators and policymakers should prioritise training programmes that enhance digital literacy among indigenous communities, particularly for female students, to maximise educational outcomes. The empirical specification follows $Y=\beta_0+\beta^\top X+\varepsilon$, and inference is reported with uncertainty-aware statistical criteria.
