JET Exchanges: Access to internet connectivity – the rights of learners in the post-COVID-19 era in Africa

This paper argues that connectivity has become a means for learners to enjoy their right to education, and in the times of COVID-19, has proven to be one of the determinants of learners’ access to education. In light of this, our view is that the right to education should be expanded to include access to connectivity.

Webinar on education for sustainable development (ESD) and COVID-19 in southern africa. Intersecting perspectives on why water, food, and livelihoods matter in transforming education for sustainable futures took place on the 20th May 2021, 10h00-12h00 SAST.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS: ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE FOR THE MERSETA’S DIGITAL ECOSYSTEM AS PART OF THE PSET CLOUD PROGRAMME

JET and the merSETA seek to appoint a qualified and expert service provider to (i) develop an appropriate and up-to-date Enterprise Architecture (EA) within and for the merSETA that will provide reliable architecture information; and (ii) develop a realistic roadmap as well as a detailed and costed implementation and mitigation plan.

Invitation: Parental Involvement

Reos Partners and JET Education Services are embarking on a process to combine their expertise to address systemic challenges in the education sector. Together, they have identified the potential lever of parental (or caregiver involvement)1 in education as an opportunity to significantly improve educational outcomes, particularly in the Foundation Phase of the child’s development.

In order to establish whether the integration of technology and the resulting "blended learning" approach is, in fact, resulting in instructional model change, the Clayton Christensen Institute undertook a survey study among a small sample of schools in Brazil, Malaysia and South Africa. The findings have been released in a report, “Blended beyond borders”.
