Update: Siyavula-Connexions Partnership

Back in November we announced an exciting new partnership between Connexions and the South Africa-based Siyavula project. This collaboration, with the support of the Shuttleworth Foundation, aims to make a full suite of learning materials available for all subjects and all grade levels (K-12).


Since we made that announcement the folks at Siyavula have been hard at work, with over 2,000 modules published already and roughly as many more expected over the course of the summer. In addition to these content contributions, the Siyavula development team has also designed and implemented several site features and enhancements, including improvements to the content lensing system and the ability for users to rate modules.

With so many quality learning modules and even more software features in the pipeline, this collaboration has already been a major success for both parties, opening the door for a global community of authors, educators, and students to take advantage of these learning resources. We want to extend a special thank you to the folks at Siyavula and the Shuttleworth Foundation, and look forward to a fruitful, long-term partnership.
