Abstract | The conversation on reforms in higher education is perpetual and even more relevant in the twenty-first century. The effects of our rapid changing technological society on the educational landscape calls for a rethinking of the teaching-learning processes, irrespective of geographical barriers or discipline of studies. Using a qualitative methodology, this paper presents the experiences gotten from implementing a project based course for information technology students in a private University in Sub-Saharan Africa. Data from three batches of students, who participated in the course, were collected, transcribed and analyzed. The Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework was adopted for the studies and the findings are in some cases, similar with those from different parts of the world. The uniqueness of the challenges with implementing project based courses in Africa are uttered. (As Provided). |
