Using ICT to bridge gap to Secondary school

Published by maggiev at 4:10 pm under Collaborations, Ideas and tagged:

How can we use ICT to address the gap in performance of learners going into secondary education?

This is a quick idea that we brainstormed in an effort to come up with an ICT intervention. The idea of an e-portfolio was explored as a way for teachers (school communities) to help smooth the way for learners and address the “performance drop” from primary to secondary school. If teachers have easier access to information in the form of an e-portfolio they will possibly be able to assist learners with problems.

Questions:

  • Privacy: who will have access to what information?
  • Who will control the information that go into this system?
  • How will you incentivize pupils and teachers to contribute to the system?
  • Has anythging like this been done elsewhere?
