This paper presents Yiya Solutions’ innovative offline virtual classroom, designed to reach rural African learners through radio, phone, and low-cost technologies. It highlights how data-driven insights can improve STEM education access, engagement, and outcomes for underserved students.
This study confirms the "Doer Effect"—where active learning (answering questions) leads to better outcomes than passive learning (listening to radio lectures)—holds true for 234 students in Uganda using mobile phones. The effect was less pronounced for students with more prior education. The findings suggest the importance of designing active learning opportunities that leverage familiar technology in diverse global contexts.
