The document discusses the development and evaluation of a pedagogical model for an open university in Nepal. It outlines the presentation given at a conference on using internet and mobile technologies for development. The presentation addressed issues with power outages, IT skills gaps, and the need for face-to-face assistance. It also proposed a process for participants that included interviews, registration, completing an online course, surveys, and follow up interviews to evaluate how many would complete the full process. The conclusion suggested either continuing the current approach or switching to case studies and offering courses in Eastern Nepal with changes to improve success rates.
