| Summary: | Many countries in sub-Saharan Africa
identify technology as a viable complementary tool to
improve learning outcomes in primary and secondary
education. New research evidence from The Gambia suggests
that a student-centered computer-assisted learning (CAL)
program significantly improves student performance and
teaching effectiveness in secondary schools. Policy action
to complement traditional pedagogical methods with
interactive technology in classrooms can help countries
translate their gains in access to education into greater
achievements in learning and skills. |
