PanAfrican Research Agenda on the Pedagogical Integration of ICTsSouth Africa Report - Zunia.org
This project places its emphasis on the pedagogic integration of ICTs, and has sought in particular to understand the development of people on the ground, often in poor and marginalized communities, where access to and the appropriate use information technology is governed by social, cultural and individual constraints and possibilities. They operate in classrooms and in schools, in relation to the former imperatives. South Africa, given its relatively recent transition to independence, and the huge wealth discrepancies that persist within the country, presents important case studies in this regard.

Architecture and Maths (Project-Lessonplan)
Students will investigate the field of architecture as a career choice, with specific research into the use of geometric shapes (polygons) in building design and construction. In the first part of the project the students will use a digital camera to record examples of the use of polygons in building design in their communities. They will present their findings to the class using a PowerPoint slide show. In the second they complete a drawing of a building as per the instructions in the Explain and Elaborate section

Sustainability?
This document forms part of the working papers generated as part of a research programme into Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sustainability factors. Funded by the Department of International Development, the research programme identified activities that sought to benefit the poor and had an ICT component. In particular it considered programmes where ICTs had enhanced ongoing development activities, the ICT activity could be replicated without sizeable investment, and there was a measure of sustainability. Sustainability was taken to be more than financial cost recovery. Drawing from lessons learned in other development sectors, sustainability involves a combination of factors including among others, clear objectives, institutional frameworks, local capacity and development benefits. While perhaps not fulfilling all the features of a strong sustainable activity, the case studies were felt to hold points of interest for the wider global development community and have the potential to be replicated.
