Introduction of Open-Source e-Learning Environment and Resources: A Novel Approach for Secondary Schools in Tanzania
The concept of e-Learning is now emerging in Sub
Saharan African countries like Tanzania. Due to economic
constraints and other social and cultural factors faced by these
countries, the use of Information and Communication Technology
(ICT) is increasing at a very low pace. The digital divide threat has
propelled the Government of Tanzania to put in place the national
ICT Policy in 2003 which defines the direction of all ICT activities
nationally. Among the main focused areas is the use of ICT in
education, since for the development of any country, there is a need
of creating knowledge based society. This paper discusses the
initiatives made so far to introduce the use of ICT tools to some
secondary schools using open source software in e-content
development to facilitate a self-learning environment
