The Africa Drive Project is an exciting opportunity for South Africa to meet the social, economic and educational challenges it is faced with.

It will introduce and test innovative new learning strategies to the education and training sector and in so doing, equip educators with the skills and knowledge that will enable them to provide learners with teaching that is relevant and up-to-date. This train-the-trainer approach will ultimately result in an increased number of science, mathematics and business and technology graduates.

The project - which will start at the North West University, Mafikeng Campus as well as at eight learning centres in the North West Province - will draw from international developments and experiences in the areas of e-learning and a blended approach using classroom, workshop, practical and e-learning as opposed to the more traditional approach - will be utilised.



This vital programme is structured in such a way that it will empower educators to play a leading role in the community - not just in terms of education, but also in terms of important social issues such as primary healthcare and the environment.
