TY - CHAP TI - Using digital technology and school-based professional development to leverage interactive classroom teaching in Zambia AU - Hennessy, Sara AU - Haßler, Björn AU - Mwewa, G AB - This chapter describes a study which explored the feasibility of using information and communications technologies (ICTs) to support more interactive forms of subject teaching and learning in Sub-Saharan Africa. Specifically, we: • provided open educational resources (OER) to three ICT-and Internetequipped primary schools in Zambia, all serving disadvantaged communities; • worked with partners to identify the needs of school-based continuing professional development (CPD) adapted to the local context; • responded to those needs by designing an appropriate intervention – focusing on participatory, collaborative and interactive pedagogies supported by ICTs and OER, both within the classroom and for teacher development.
