“…We have developed and presented in [3] a new model of distance learning that is tailored to conventional education. The originality and innovative character of this model comes from the pedagogical approach used, the targeted teachings, the technological support, and the practical application framework.…”

“…The sequence diagram in Figure 3 details the different stages of this mutualisation process; the work is carried out by a group of specialist teachers, under the supervision of a coordinator, who proposes a common content at the end. Once the pooling is done, we moved on to the stage of putting the course online; the results of setting up a pooled cross-cutting course in online within our platform [34] are illustrated in [3]. The shared course is first scripted by the techno-pedagogical team of the Open Training Institute (IFoAD) of Bambey according to the pedagogical objectives.…”

“…In the same section, we also bring out the main challenges to be solve for a better integration of ICT in Senegalese education system. Then we summarize in Section 3 our distance-learning based model for pooling and migrating crosscutting courses of a traditional university in distance education; a more detailed description of the model is available in [3]. This proposed model will enable a classical university to optimize its material, pedagogical, and financial resources, thanks to the opportunities offered by distance learning.…”

Public universities in Senegal are facing huge issues related to the student reception and training. Given the budget deficit in Senegal and in African countries in general, our leaders struggle to continuously invest in the human and material resources within the universities. In addition, the courses taught in traditional programs are most often repetitive and sometimes not up-to-date, which does not allow universities to optimize time, space, human resources, and finance. As a result, it become acute to adapt the learning models and teaching methods within the traditional universities. Distance learning seems to be an essential solution. However, existing distance learning offers in these universities are in general geared towards certifying and degree-based distance learning. This does not solve the problems encountered in classical pedagogical training. Starting from these limits, we first propose a new efficient model of distance education at the service of a classical university, then we demonstrate its positive financial, material and pedagogical impacts. The proposed model has been implemented and successfully evaluated at Alioune Diop University of Bambey, a classical university in Senegal.
