Current Work
OER Africa is undertaking collaborative work to develop the professional competences and skills of stakeholders within African higher education institutions so that they can implement OER practices to improve the quality of teaching and learning.
We Are:
- Developing and testing effective models of continuous professional development for supporting OER practices, and
- Sharing knowledge gained through a range of mechanisms.
- Developing an evidence-based CPD framework comprising a set of inter-related learning pathways on effective OER practices.
Our Website Showcases:
- Resources and information to help with understanding OER; this is a consolidation of our work with partner institutions of introducing the concept of OER and related OER research that has been done over the past years.
- Information on what is happening in OER in higher education in Africa.
- OER courseware that has been developed in Africa. We are very excited by a new development to host courseware from the Partnership for Enhanced and Blended Learning (PEBL) Project.
- Research, theses, and national/institutional policies around OER in Africa.
