24. THE TIME IS RIGHT FOR NEW APPROACHES

25. What is Open Education?
Open Education encompasses resources, tools and
practices that employ a framework of open sharing to
improve educational access and effectiveness worldwide.
Open Education combines the traditions of knowledge
sharing and creation with 21st century technology to
create a vast pool of openly shared educational resources
while harnessing today’s collaborative spirit to develop
educational approaches that are more responsive to
learner’s needs.

26. Open Education Allows
Higher Education
to reconsider approaches
to teaching and learning

33. Saide's African Storybook Project is an initiative to stimulate the provision
and use of openly licensed stories in local African languages for early
reading. The project is conducting pilots in rural and urban sites across
Kenya, Uganda, Lesotho and South Africa.
The vision of the African Storybook Project is for every African child to
have enough stories in a language familiar to them to practise their
reading skills and learn to love reading.
