Title A name given to the resource Online learning in higher education in Sub-Saharan Africa: Ghanaian university students' experiences and perceptions Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource This study adopted a qualitative case-study approach to examine the attitudes, experiences, and perceptions of undergraduate students who were enrolled in an online, collaborative learning course at a Ghanaian private university. Data sources included surveys, student and instructor journal entries, email records, individual interviews, and Web-server logs. The study found that the students did not respond favorably to online constructivist teaching approaches such as asynchronous discussions and ill-structured project-based learning activities, and perceived collaborative online learning within their context as a complex, more demanding and time-consuming experience.

Title A name given to the resource “We had a Blast!” An Empirical Affirmation of Blended Learning as the Preferred Learning Mode for Adult Learners Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource As many important issues pertaining to blended learning within the Sub-Saharan African context remain unexplored, this study implemented a blended learning approach in a graduate-level course at a private university in Ghana, with the objective of exploring adult learners’ attitudes, experiences and behaviors towards this learning approach, as well as their perceptions towards blended learning in general. Forty-eight graduate students participated in the study as they engaged in a six-week-long blended learning course. Qualitative research methods were used to gather data, which were analyzed using grounded theory coding techniques, descriptive statistics, and content analysis. Findings reveal high levels of student engagement and satisfaction with the learning processes and an overwhelming endorsement of blended learning as a preferred mode of learning. Implications of these findings for further research and practice are discussed within the context of technology adoption and use in the Ghanaian and Sub-Saharan African higher education contexts.

Title A name given to the resource Digitize or Perish Subject The topic of the resource Library Science Description An account of the resource In today’s knowledge and technology-driven society, most scholarly information is increasingly being produced and distributed in digital formats. Yet, in Sub-Saharan Africa, academic libraries have been very slow at joining this digital movement and hence stand the risk of losing their relevance, particularly with regard to locally generated intellectual material. To better serve the knowledge and information seeking needs of their patrons, librarians need to reinvent services. The challenges are discussed as well as prescriptions of workable strategies that librarians, information scientists, and other stakeholders can adopt to overcome these barriers. Such strategies mostly involve appropriately leveraging the existing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools and resources to make library resources more accessible. Consequently, digitizing indigenous intellectual resources may keep libraries from perishing and respond to user needs and information seeking habits in Sub-Saharan Africa.
