Improving outcomes in challenging circumstances.
Mwabu exists to solve the challenges faced by primary school teachers in rural Africa. They use Moodle to improve student outcomes—through African-centric digital content; cost-effective hardware, teacher training, and online/offline data capture and analytics. Their solutions are purpose-built to support untrained teachers, large class sizes, and low resource settings.
Mwabu equips pupils with tablets preloaded with the Moodle Mobile App, which allows those without internet access or existing hardware to learn offline. Titus developed a custom Moodle platform for Mwabu which included the Moodle Mobile App—a fundamental part of the project. This allows them to raise standards of English, Maths, and Science in impoverished communities.

Moodle—making a difference for students.
Our work with Mwabu is breaking down barriers to education, empowering more teachers, and promoting key skills to young people.
Creating Custom Content
After a significant content rebuild project, Mwabu was able to convert their content into an adaptable form using Articulate Storyline and published it as SCORM for use.
With the implementation of the new Moodle platform, Mwabu can now easily reorganise the content as needed. This includes continually adding new items when required and updating and replacing older content as necessary, providing a more dynamic and up-to-date learning experience for users.
Platform Usage
Centre coordinators who trialled the library model in three of their centres (with 120 tablets) provided overwhelmingly positive feedback. They appreciated the tracking available through Moodle and the various reports that can be easily generated. These reports provide insight into how the devices are being used and the overall performance of different activities.
As of October 2023, Mwabu has deployed 530 pre-loaded devices and three micro-servers connected to another 120 devices. These are all shared devices used by an average of 10 or more learners. Therefore, the total project reach to date is approximately 6,500 learners.
Following a successful pilot as part of the N50 project in Luumbo, Zambia, Mwabu is planning to expand into a further 50 schools.
