I’m doing research in Senegal this summer on education, socioeconomic class, and technology - what would you most want to see out of this?

I’m an undergrad going to Senegal this summer and I’ll be doing field work as part of the program. I’ll get to go into several schools (at least three schools of various socioeconomic levels in Dakar, and potentially schools in certain Senegalese villages) and speak with teachers, students, and administrators. I’m mostly focused on how technology is used in and out of the classroom, and how socioeconomic class and the accompanying differences in access to technology impact educators and students.

What I want to know from y’all is twofold:

What information would be most useful for you as educators? Are there any questions that you think might help me get beyond the surface level?

What do you think would be the most useful way of presenting this information? I am thinking of making a video or mini-documentary, but I could also more simply write a paper.

Any advice or criticism would be quite welcome :)
