ICT and e-learning provide great opportunities in the development and economic growth of African countries in the future. Online access to knowledge anywhere and anytime has become the new educational paradigm of modern societies. ICT and specifically ICT4Ag technologies will have significant impact on developments in agriculture in Africa, dissemination of knowledge and exchange of information, and they will shape the ways farmers access information and use this knowledge.

APPEAR in practice invites project partners to reflect on and discuss their experiences referring to a specific topic in the project implementation process of their partnerships. In this event lessons learnt from the APPEAR project Strengthening Capacities for Agricultural Education, Research and Adoption in Kenya (SCARA) will be discussed by Raphael Gacheiya, Egerton University and Dominik Ruffeis, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna (BOKU). Andreas Zitek will present some findings of his work at the Centre for E-Learning und Didactics (BOKU) and the joint implementation of an online teaching course at Egerton University. Helvi Ileka will share the experience with e-learning at the Namibia University of Science and Technology.
