Rosamund Sutherland, with input from the Use of ICT Project Team

This policy brief suggests investment in ICT in Rwandan schools will only impact on education quality if young people are allowed student-centred, hands-on learning with ICT, and teacher professional development is key. Teacher professional development networks should be promoted, building on the model developed in the EdQual project.

Edmond Were, Jolly Rubagiza, Rosamund Sutherland

This working paper argues that, despite efforts to provide Rwandan teachers, learners and communities with opportunities to take advantage of ICT’s potential, increasing numbers of people in some social groups subsist outside the knowledge society. Reducing this digital divide needs recognition of the challenges these groups face.
