Research Questions
• What is the state of connectivity and digital
proficiency?
• What kind and level of use, re-use, creation,
and sharing of educational resources (ER)?
• What is the level of awareness of licensing
related to open educational resources (OER)?
• How do they perceive the value of openness
in educational resources, its implementation
opportunities, and its institutional context?

Concluding Remarks
• Digital proficiency shows various patterns of
differentiation. Lecturers and students at non-
technical universities rate themselves clearly more
‘advanced’ than their colleagues at the technical
universities.
• Scores: lecturers 22% Versus 15%; students 12%
versus 5%.

17
Cont..
• Level of satisfaction with the internet connection a
partly alarming outcome comes up. No matter
whether this relates to cost, speed, or stability, at
the technical universities the dissatisfaction is very
pronounced: around 64% for the students, and over
67% for the lecturers. At the non-technical
universities the overall appreciation is reverse.
• Yes, there is a substantial digital differentiation in
terms of internet connection and accessibility
between technical and non-technical universities.
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
18
Cont…
• Open licensing does not receive proper
attention. This appears from the question on
the application of licenses, on the one hand
to be assigned by respondents for their own
materials to others, and on the other hand by
respondents using open educational
resources from others.
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
19
Cont…
• In practice, & interestingly enough, both
lecturers and students appear to act quite
frequently with an attitude and behaviour of
embracing those key OER attributes.
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
20
Recommendations
• A significant part of the lecturers at Ghanaian
universities does not yet have the required
ICT competencies as foreseen in the National
ICT Policy, and because there is a significant
digital proficiency differentiation (L &S) at
technical and non-technical universities, the
implementation of that ICT Policy is at stake
and needs a strong boost from different
stakeholders i.e. government.
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
21
Recommendations
• The alarmingly substantial digital
differentiation in terms of internet access
and accessibility and the extremely low level
of satisfaction with the internet connection
(cost, speed, and stability) at the technical
universities as compared to the non-technical
universities, puts a serious challenge on
Ghana…..
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
22
Recommendations
• The overall awareness and appreciation of
open licensing, let alone commitment to this
approach, is low and therefore a hindrance in
the adoption of the OER philosophy.
OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands
24-26 April 2018
23
Recommendations
• The perception of ER’s value scored by both
lecturers and students, can be useful also in
the context of how to most effectively
further OER in Ghana as a country and its
educational institutions.

Differentiation in Access to, and the Use and Sharing of (O)ER among Students and Lecturers at Ghanaian Universities

  • 1. Differentiation in Access to, and the Use and Sharing of (Open) Educational Resources among Students and Lecturers at Ghanaian Universities JUDITH PETE Prof. FRED MULDER Prof. JOSE DUTRA
  • 2. Who Am I? • PhD Researcher at the Open University Netherlands (OU NL) • Member of Global Open Educational Resources Graduate Network (GO-GN) • Lecturer and Research Coordinator at Tangaza University College, Nairobi Kenya • Africa Co-ordinator for ROER4D project 2 OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 2
  • 3. • ROER4D is a large-scale study carried out to get a fair ‘OER Picture’ for the Global South. • South America, South East Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. • GHANA – Sub-Saharan country surveyed OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 3
  • 4. Sample •818 students •38 Lecturers •University of Ghana, Cape Coast, Kwame Nkurume University Science &Technology and Catholic Institute of Business and Technology OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 4
  • 5. Research Questions • What is the state of connectivity and digital proficiency? • What kind and level of use, re-use, creation, and sharing of educational resources (ER)? • What is the level of awareness of licensing related to open educational resources (OER)? • How do they perceive the value of openness in educational resources, its implementation opportunities, and its institutional context?

  • 17. Concluding Remarks • Digital proficiency shows various patterns of differentiation. Lecturers and students at non- technical universities rate themselves clearly more ‘advanced’ than their colleagues at the technical universities. • Scores: lecturers 22% Versus 15%; students 12% versus 5%. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 17
  • 18. Cont.. • Level of satisfaction with the internet connection a partly alarming outcome comes up. No matter whether this relates to cost, speed, or stability, at the technical universities the dissatisfaction is very pronounced: around 64% for the students, and over 67% for the lecturers. At the non-technical universities the overall appreciation is reverse. • Yes, there is a substantial digital differentiation in terms of internet connection and accessibility between technical and non-technical universities. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 18
  • 19. Cont… • Open licensing does not receive proper attention. This appears from the question on the application of licenses, on the one hand to be assigned by respondents for their own materials to others, and on the other hand by respondents using open educational resources from others. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 19
  • 20. Cont… • In practice, & interestingly enough, both lecturers and students appear to act quite frequently with an attitude and behaviour of embracing those key OER attributes. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 20
  • 21. Recommendations • A significant part of the lecturers at Ghanaian universities does not yet have the required ICT competencies as foreseen in the National ICT Policy, and because there is a significant digital proficiency differentiation (L &S) at technical and non-technical universities, the implementation of that ICT Policy is at stake and needs a strong boost from different stakeholders i.e. government. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 21
  • 22. Recommendations • The alarmingly substantial digital differentiation in terms of internet access and accessibility and the extremely low level of satisfaction with the internet connection (cost, speed, and stability) at the technical universities as compared to the non-technical universities, puts a serious challenge on Ghana….. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 22
  • 23. Recommendations • The overall awareness and appreciation of open licensing, let alone commitment to this approach, is low and therefore a hindrance in the adoption of the OER philosophy. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 23
  • 24. Recommendations • The perception of ER’s value scored by both lecturers and students, can be useful also in the context of how to most effectively further OER in Ghana as a country and its educational institutions. OE Global Conference Delft, Netherlands 24-26 April 2018 24
