Our goal is to improve the quality of and access to education in Nigeria. Our work is centered on 3 pillars:
Content Creation: By creating and curating engaging and interactive content guided by the curriculum and with the aid of digital labs which are game-like environments that simulate basic science concepts, we have been able to help students learn by exploration and thereby increasing their interest and participation in STEM.
Methodology: It is our understanding that the approach with which STEM is taught largely influences studentsโ interest in STEM. Hence our focus on providing effective methods of teaching STEM subjects. We train teachers on the use of Inquiry-Based Learning which is a teaching technique that actively puts the students in the center of learning and encourages curiosity, collaboration, and critical thinking.
Teacher Training: This focuses on equipping teachers with the knowledge and capacity on the use of digital labs as an Inquiry-Based Learning approach to teaching STEM content in their classrooms. This is done by setting up communities of practice through STEM 'cells' within the schools. Here, the teachers regularly meet to encourage creativity, inquiry, and collaboration with the use of technology to improve the learning outcomes of students in STEM. We also provide effective professional development for both in-service and pre-service teachers to upgrade their teaching skills, master new teaching methods, and develop better proficiency in the use of technology.
