    Sub-Saharan teacher STEM professional development with digital ink: Follow-up (Sub-Saharan pen-based computing follow-up)
    (Springer, 2019) Hamilton, Eric
    This chapter reports on research activities originally reported at the 2015 WIPTTE conference, the last one held prior to the conference name change. The chapter, entitled “A Model and Research Agenda for Teacher and Student Collaboration Using Tablets in Digital Media Making: Results from Sub-Saharan Workshops” reported on a series of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) projects funded by the Kenyan Ministry of Education, Microsoft Research, and the National Science Foundation. The research has continued since then, with additional support from the Namibian Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture, the US State Department’s Fulbright Program, and new, multiyear funding from NSF. The chapter describes the evolution of the project and five themes emerging from it, in addition to describing a new four-year effort related to the original paper. The original paper focused on activities in Kenya, Ghana, Uganda, and Namibia. This chapter centers on follow-up activities in Namibia.
