| dc.description | The study examined that effectiveness of local radio educational programmes at Namibian College of Open Learning (NAMCOL). The objectives of the study were to evaluate the objectives of the NAMCOL radio educational programmes, exploring the distribution process and assessment activities involved in NAMCOL radio educational programmes, determine impact of NAMCOL radio educational programmes on student learning experience; and analyse the challenges that NAMCOL faces in producing and broadcasting local radio educational programmes. A qualitative approach was applied on a population of 115 full-time staff members at the Yetu Yama NAMCOL Centre in Windhoek and key personnel from NAMCOL. An interview guide was used. Collected data was thematically analysed. Results indicate that radio is an inexpensive means of communication, increases on learning and is important in building knowledgeable society. There are challenges of limited funds, professional personnel, inadequate education, and training on the use of the radio educational programmes faced in producing and broadcasting local radio educational programmes. The study concluded that local radio educational programmes at NAMCOL are effective. The main recommendation is that information taught on the radio should be recorded and stored in a format that students can copy onto their own storage devices and NAMCOL’s Education Radio Project Team must motivate for alternative funding in order for the project to continue | en_US |
