Commitment to eContent Development and How challenges invloved in the process can be overcome

Passionately driven by the advocacy for improved learning in Africa through the use of emerging technologies, its no surprise I have devoted, my career path to finding sustainable technologies that can be used in Africa For e-learning development using the minimal infrastructure available, despite the fact that Africa far yet so near to compiling with global trend to improving education technologies.

Challenges like lack of infrastructure, lack of commitment, lack of institutional policies and lack of Human Resources have deter the progress of this advocacy. BUT, change in attitude and wilful culture change from all those willing to see the success of e-Content Development and e-learning (me included), will help us to start with whatever resources, merger as they maybe and build upon that, gradually ("starting small").

  2. Please ensure that you have:
    (1) Written a pledge committing to develop electronic content (2) Explained how you will overcome any anticipated challenges

    This must be explicitly done on your blog.
