Technology can help to bridge South Africa’s education divide

A report by Amnesty International found that of 100 learners that start school, 50 to 60 will make it to matric, 40 to 50 will pass matric, and only 14 will go to university. This coupled with crumbling infrastructure, poor sanitation, a shortage of qualified teachers, a lack of basic equipment and textbooks, a scarcity of laboratories and libraries, and no access to technology or the internet, have all led to poor learning outcomes and a dire need for innovative solutions.</p><br> <a href="https://www.bizcommunity.com//Article/196/371/237138.html">Read more...</a> | <a href="https://www.bizcommunity.com//SendToFriend.aspx?l=196&c=371&ct=1&ci=237138">Send to a friend</a></p><div style="clear:left"></div>

Why digital and physical libraries must coexist in SA

<p><img src="https://biz-file.com/c/2303/692331.png" width=208 height=117 alt="Why digital and physical libraries must coexist in SA" align="left"><p>According to a <a href="http://www.thejournalist.org.za/books/too-many-libraries-are-forced-to-close-their-doors/" target="_blank">report</a> by <a href="https://thejournalist.org" target="_blank">thejournalist.org</a>, South Africa's public libraries are closing down at an alarming rate across the country. The reasons for this vary from shrinking budgets to management issues to many people using their phones and other mobile devices to access information they once would have accessed in a library.
