Featured Project

The aim of the AgShare Planning and Pilot Project is to create a scalable and sustainable collaboration of existing organizations for African publishing, localizing, and sharing of teaching and learning materials that fill critical resource gaps in African MSc agriculture curriculum and that can be modified for other downstream uses. The project's objectives are to create a strong foundation for growth and expansion by providing evidence of key metrics so that AgShare can achieve its vision of success. Find out more.

AGRICULTURE OER

We are in the process of setting up an Agriculture OER Space, here you will find comprehensive set of resources on agriculture, specific to African higher education.

Some of the activities on this space will involved:

  1. Defining an appropriate domain-specific taxonomy for tagging agricultural higher education content;

  2. Identifying and linking to relevant agricultural OERs that will be of relevance to African agricultural higher education;

  3. Approaching African universities and relevant NGOs in Africa to request them to share content as OER;

  4. Assisting institutions interested in sharing content to clear necessary copyrights, using a licence clearing process called dScribe (which has been developed by the University of Michigan and is currently being used by OER Africa and the University to support copyright clearance in the health sector).
