AfricaDotEdu (Hardbound)
IT Opportunities and Higher Education in Africa
Edited by Maria A. Beebe, Koffi M. Kouakou, Banji O. Oyeyinka, and Madanmohan Rao

Despite serious obstacles, access to information and communications technologies (ICTs), such as the Internet, is improving in Africa. This book is the first to chronicle and analyze the growth of the Internet in Africa and to especially highlight the role of the education sector in this effort. This unprecedented compilation of scholarly essays provides comprehensive statistics, analysis, and road maps for the future of the Internet in African education. Topics covered in the twenty-four chapters range from digital libraries and country case studies to national information technology policies and e-learning. As a benchmark for e-learning initiatives, AfricaDotEdu answers critical questions about preparing students to meet twenty-first century challenges.
