Improving the Efficacy of Mentorship with an Open Education Ecosystem
Commonwealth of Learning
New Zealand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade has funded the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) to implement a project to contribute to enhanced capacity and efficiency of Pacific education sectors through greater use of innovative delivery mechanisms and technology. This report provides an improved mentorship model for the capacity development courses of the Partnership for Open Distance and Flexible Learning Project. This report highlights the need to nurture a Pacific regional ecosystem to realise sustainable solutions for the future and proposes the establishment of a 'Collaborative OER Technology Community' drawing on the success of 'platform cooperativism'. [This report was developed by OER Foundation under a contract with the Commonwealth of Learning.]
