Abstract

This book critically examines how the COVID-19 pandemic has stimulated digital innovation within higher education using case studies from Africa. Imagining a future for post-pandemic higher education, it analyses the challenges and opportunities of remote teaching and learning. The book explores the structural barriers around access to higher education and how these were reconfigured and amplified by technology-dependent teaching and learning. Case studies from countries across Africa provide unique insights into the challenges experienced by Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) during the COVID-19 pandemic, examining examples of emergent pedagogies such as online, mobile and social media-enhanced teaching, and blended learning. The chapters consider online assessment and teacher professional development, critically examining some of the benefits and structural challenges of digital technology integration in the context of pre-existing education disparities (such as students and teachers living in poverty-stricken and highly unequal societies). Offering invaluable insights into higher education in Africa, the book will be essential reading for researchers, scholars, and students in the fields of higher education study, digital education and educational technology, and African and comparative education. It will also be of interest to higher education managers and policymakers. © 2023 selection and editorial matter, Admire Mare, Erisher Woyo and Elina M. Amadhila. All rights reserved.

非洲高等教育机构的数字技术教学
这本书通过非洲的案例研究,批判性地审视了COVID-19大流行如何刺激高等教育中的数字创新。展望大流行后高等教育的未来,报告分析了远程教学的挑战和机遇。这本书探讨了接受高等教育的结构性障碍,以及这些障碍是如何被依赖技术的教学和学习重新配置和放大的。来自非洲各国的案例研究为高等教育机构在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间所面临的挑战提供了独特的见解,研究了新兴教学法的例子,如在线、移动和社交媒体强化教学以及混合式学习。这些章节考虑了在线评估和教师专业发展,在现有教育差距(例如生活在贫困和高度不平等社会的学生和教师)的背景下,批判性地研究了数字技术集成的一些好处和结构性挑战。这本书提供了对非洲高等教育的宝贵见解,将成为高等教育研究、数字教育和教育技术、非洲和比较教育领域的研究人员、学者和学生的必读读物。它也会引起高等教育管理者和政策制定者的兴趣。©2023选择和编辑事项,钦佩Mare, Erisher Woyo和Elina M. Amadhila。版权所有。
