Also ODL tutors are usually not housed at one place, but they are scattered country wide and beyond. In regard to the search of quality, ODL tutors are expected to operate on the same wavelength. The study deliberately sought to unravel the degree to which ODL tutors’ experiences in curriculum implementation could pursue quality.

Abstract:

One of the critical components in Open-Distance learning programmes are institutional support services. These services subsume all interactions between institutional personnel and learners (prospective and registered) intended to assist them in meeting their objectives from the point of first inquiry through graduation. This notwithstanding, the rate at which learners remain on the programmes and complete their programme in ODL is low. It is on this premise, that this study, examined institutional support services in relation to retention and completion of learners in open-distance learning in

Sometimes this occurs in the absence of any national or institutional policy. Where national policies exist, they are not always available in a digital format. Sometimes issues related to ODL provision are embedded in other policy documents, such as ICT policies or Education Sector plans. This publication includes examples of policies

Abstract:

During 2019–21, the Ministry of General Education in Zambia piloted an open and innovative schooling (OIS) programme. It used an e-learning model that involved developing and sharing curriculum-based open educational resources (OER) to supplement other teaching and learning processes. The resources could be accessed through both online and offline means. The programme was implemented in 15 centres that supported distance learners and five schools where traditional face-to-face learning took place. A tracer study was conducted among learners, teachers and head teachers who participated in the p
