Paper Video, Cape Town

Paper Video is a team of experienced South African teachers who use innovation and technology to dramatically increase the reach of their lessons. Founded by Chris Mills and Paul Maree in June 2014, the initiative received seed funding from the Millenium Trust and went on to release their first set of resources (353 exam questions and solution videos for Grade 12 Mathematics) in September 2014. In the two months preceding the 2014 NSC final exams, Paper Video amassed over 2 000 online users and 37 000 video views. With the subsequent demand for more grades and subjects expressed by students across the country, Paper Video went on to expand dramatically and now caters for Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Natural Sciences and Accounting from Grade 8 to 12.
