Gender issues in the use of computers in education in Africa

This report is a desk review, commissioned by Imfundo:
Partnership for IT in education, which explores gender issues in the use of computers in education in Africa. Although there is currently little Africa specific research, European and north American research has consistently highlighted gender differences and inequalities in access to computers in education, in attitudes towards and use of computers, and on educational impact. This review draws on these findings, and those of broader research on gender in development and education in Africa, to highlight issues which are the basis for Gender Guidelines on the use of computers in schools and teacher education.
