MOBILE LEARNING AFGHANISTAN

Monday, December 12, 2011

Second co-creation workshop took place in Kabul, October 2011

The objective of the Great Idea project is develop a distance and mobile learning model which will ensure better access to and increase quality secondary education in 4 districts in Afghanistan for boys and girls. After the co-creation workshop in May 2011, the implementation of the working solutions have been started up. The telecast lessons were implemented in the classroom. A master teacher is giving lessons in a studio in Kabul and these lessons are broadcasted in 21 schools.

In October 2011 all partners came together to make the next steps. The aim of the second co-creation workshop was to fine-tune the mobile learning solution: a consultation line for teachers and students making use of an IVR system. Teachers and students can call to the helpline with a mobile phone to get connected with the master teachers in Kabul.
