TESSA (Teacher Education in Sub-Saharan Africa) aims to
improve the classroom practices of primary teachers and
secondary science teachers in Africa through the provision of Open
Educational Resources (OERs) to support teachers in developing
student-centred, participatory approaches. The TESSA OERs
provide teachers with a companion to the school textbook. They
offer activities for teachers to try out in their classrooms with their students, together with case
studies showing how other teachers have taught the topic, and linked resources to support
teachers in developing their lesson plans and subject knowledge.
TESSA OERs have been collaboratively written by African and international authors to address
the curriculum and contexts. They are available for online and print use
(http://www.tessafrica.net). The Primary OERs are available in several versions and languages
(English, French, Arabic and Swahili). Initially, the OER were produced in English and made
relevant across Africa. These OER have been versioned by TESSA partners for Ghana, Nigeria,
Zambia, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa, and translated by partners in
Sudan (Arabic), Togo (French) and Tanzania (Swahili) Secondary Science OER are available in
English and have been versioned for Zambia, Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. We welcome
feedback from those who read and make use of these resources. The Creative Commons
License enables users to adapt and localise the OERs further to meet local needs and contexts.
TESSA is led by The Open University, UK, and currently funded by charitable grants from The
Allan and Nesta Ferguson Foundation, The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation and Open
University Alumni. A complete list of funders is available on the TESSA website
(http://www.tessafrica.net).
As well as the main body of pedagogic resources to support teaching in particular subject areas,
there are a selection of additional resources including audio, key resources which describe
specific practices, handbooks and toolkits.
