This month we continued making progress in teaching computer programming lessons in Ghana. All of the students have completed a vast collection of projects together as a class. Now they are getting ready to start independently developing their own applications and games. It’s the next big step for our students. In the lead-up to the summer holiday, we spent a lot of time talking about what type of projects each student would like to do and asking everyone what type of support they would need to start developing applications on their own. After the kids return from summer break, we plan to start teaching classes in a new format with each student writing up a personal plan for a project and developing it individually. We will teach the lesson by providing individual support on a student-by-student basis as needed. Having kids at such a young age independently develop their own applications and games will be a major accomplishment for everyone, especially the kids and their families.
