Ace Maths Unit One: Exploring What It Means to 'Do' Mathematics (pdf)
This unit gives a historical background to mathematics education in South Africa, to outcomes-based education and to the national curriculum statement for mathematics. The traditional approach to teaching mathematics is then contrasted with an approach to teaching mathematics that focuses on ?doing? mathematics, and mathematics as a science of pattern and order, in which learners actively... more

ACEMaths
The aim of SAIDE ACEMaths project was to pilot a collaborative process for the selection, adaptation and use of OER materials for teacher education programmes in South Africa. Over a period of two years we adapted, piloted and revised a set of materials on the teaching and learning of maths for teacher education. These are now available for downloading FOR FREE in two formats - for printing... more
A Rationale for Health OER in Africa - Health Symposium 3rd September, 2008
OER Africa believes that OER can positively support development and capacity of higher education systems and institutions across Africa and is concerned that if the concept and practice of OER evolves predominantly outside and for Africa, we in SSA will not be able to liberate its potentialry year. more
