Hi, I'm a technical developer and advisor, specialising in mobile learning and educational technology for low-resource environments.
Over the last years, I've supported the implementation of a range technologies to help improve the training of rural health workers, mainly in Ethiopia, but also in Liberia, Uganda, Nigeria, India, Zambia, Ghana, Lebanon and Pakistan.
I'm a keen proponent of the use of Open Source Software, Agile Methodologies, Creative Commons licensing and the Principles for Digital Development.
If you would like to find out more about how I could support your work and organisation then please contact me.
My main focus is on the technical development and deployment of the OppiaMobile learning platform:
OppiaMobile
OppiaMobile is an open source mobile learning platform from Digital Campus for delivering learning content, video and quizzes. All the content and activities can be accessed and used even when no internet connection is available. When a connection becomes available, tracking and quiz scores are sent back to the server for tutors, teachers and trainers to track the progress of their learners. Learners earn points and badges for completing activities and modules.
