TIGA awards celebrate 'ICT for Education' projects at eLearning Africa
**************************************************
Dar es Salaam -The second leg of the long-awaited 2011 Technology in
Government Awards (TIGA) in the 'ICT in Education' category were celebrated
at a high-profile event and ceremony, Friday morning. Over 1,400
participants from about 80 countries are attending the eLearning Africa,
6th International Conference on ICT for Development, Education and
Training, at the Mlimani City Conference Centre, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
The awards, according to the Information and Communication Service of the
Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) are co-organised by the Economic
Commission for Africa (ECA) and the Government of Finland in collaboration
with the eLearning Africa Scholarship Trust, the organizer of the eLearning
Africa annual event. The awards are given in recognition of initiatives
aimed at exploiting information and communication technologies (ICTs) for
education and training in Africa.
In remarks read by his representative at the ceremony, ECA's Executive
Secretary and UN Under-Secretary-General, Mr Abdoulie Janneh said, "today
we see signs that more and more ICT applications are being integrated in
all sectors in Africa including in government, education, health and in the
economic sectors."
He, however, noted that whilst the adoption of ICTs in education in Africa
is on the increase, "it is a fact that the continent still falls behind,
which is why these awards are so important." He added, "It is indeed
necessary for the youth in Africa to gain acquainted with the 21st century
skills in order to increase the competitive advantages of Africa."
The following projects won this year's 2011 awards in the 'ICT in
Education' category:
The Speaking Book: This project aims to make education about critical
issues accessible to all regardless of literacy or education level. This
'world first' is created by South Africans for Africans and focuses on
rural, vulnerable and excluded people living in disadvantaged regions of
Sub-Saharan Africa and communities around the world. Improving health care
is a top priority for Africa and through the Speaking Books
(http://www.sadag.co.za, www.booksofhope.com), access to essential medical
information for low literacy, rural, and vulnerable Africans is improved.
Dr Math, South Africa - Dr. Math (http://www.csir.co.za) is a mobile
tutoring service that provides access to credible, personal, on-demand
tutoring in the subject of Mathematics.
eLimika e-learning programme, KENYA ? eLimika (http://www.elimika.ac.ke),
which is a Kiswahili word for "get educated", is the vehicle through which
Kenya Institute of Education (KIE) delivers its courses.
Plate-forme de formation à distance de l'Academia Aberta de Angola:
Formation partout et à tout moment!, ANGOLA (www.academia-aberta.com) is
the training platform of the Open Academy of Angola 2 and provides a
distance training space and collaborative working environment.
Background:
For the first entries to the award in 2007, there were 36 TIGA entries
from 17 countries. Two years later, there were 60 entries from 20 countries
in 2009. This year, 89 entries were received from 24 countries, with over
44 projects short-listed for the Awards. In general, an increase of over
40% in the number of entries is received with every subsequent TIGA Award.
According to ECA, this suggests that there is significant interest and
increased use of ICT in delivery of innovative services to the people by
African governments.
During the next TIGA process in 2013, ECA will be launching a G-Government
category or Geospatial Government, which encompasses the use of the
Internet and GIS in making the delivery of services more effective by
governments.
