The state of Africa’s learning landscape in 2013
February 10, 2013 Editor 0
Launched today, The eLearning Africa 2013 Survey will monitor African opinion on how the Continent’s learning landscape is changing under the influence of new technologies. Under the overarching theme of ‘Mobility and the MDGs in Africa beyond 2015’, this major pan-African survey will form the foundation of The eLearning Africa 2013 Report, which will be launched at the eLearning Africa 2013 conference in Windhoek, Namibia, from May 29th – 31st 2013.
Building on the key findings of The eLearning Africa 2012 Report, the 2013 Report will analyse the integration of learning technologies in Africa, explore the development of locally-produced digital content and examine the challenges and opportunities that are shaping Africa’s eLearning sector.
Launched by Benin’s Minister of Communication and ICT Max Ahouêkê at the eLearning Africa 2012 conference, The eLearning Africa 2012 Report found that the main factor constraining the African eLearning sector is lack of bandwidth, the most important change agent is the government, and the main motivation for using ICT is to improve the quality of teaching.
The eLearning Africa 2013 Report will measure progress in these areas and engage with new ways of approaching Africa’s systemic developmental challenges and priorities for the post-2015 development agenda.
According to Shafika Isaacs, the editor of the Report and eLearning Africa Programme Director:
“There remains a significant knowledge gap in consolidating the African experience of ICT for Development from an African perspective. This report will document the views and insights of African researchers, policy makers and experts on Africa’s experience with eLearning. It will provide authoritative analysis and critical reflection on emerging technology trends and their role, influence and value for human development in Africa.”
All those involved with learning technologies in Africa are encouraged to take part. The Survey is open until 20th February 2013 and can be completed online at http://survey.icwe.info or a PDF copy requested by contacting elareport@icwe.info. All those who submit their completed Survey before the deadline will be entered into a prize draw and stand the chance of winning a tablet.
