It's been a busy time in Ghana as always, even more so as our next shipment of computers will arrive shortly!
In the meantime we've been busy with many training days being held for ICCES Centre Managers and ICT Teachers in the Volta region (at Kedzi ICCES) in the Great Accra region (at Ngleshie Amanfro ICCES) and in the Ashanti region (at Afoako ICCES).
A total of 65 delegates attended the training sessions and feedback was good. In particular, the session on e-learning and using the resources on the computers to support all subjects, was well received. It was very clear from our visits to both ICCES and other schools where we have set up computer labs that ongoing training and support is essential to ensure the most effective use of resources.
Topics covered included:
In future we plan to also assist with other requested topics such as:
Visits to Primary and Junior High Schools with Computer labs
We were also able to visit several other schools, including Mamprobi Methodist Primary School, Accra Royal Primary School, Prabon School and Tetrefu Junior High School. The computer lab at Mamprobi was very well set up and maintained (including a blower to ensure computers were kept free of dust) and computers were integrated into the curriculum.
