Our experiences suggest that MOOCs have a real role to play in Africa. They
offer a powerful means to bring intellectual and political projects across

increasingly enthusiastic about learning more about the continent by way of
interpersonal relationships.

Universities that are prepared to truly flip their classrooms, bringing
offline and online together, are in for an exciting ride.
