Tech Revolution in African Classrooms: Experts Advocate for Digital Transformation!
Education technology (EdTech) is rapidly transforming learning in Africa, and experts are calling on governments to prioritize digital learning solutions. At the African EduTech Conference 2024 in Abuja, stakeholders highlighted the urgent need for digital tools to enhance teaching methodologies, improve accessibility, and equip students with skills relevant to the 21st century.
The pandemic accelerated e-learning adoption, but many African schools still lack proper infrastructure to support digital education. Experts argue that investing in smart classrooms, online learning platforms, and teacher training in digital education is necessary for the continent’s economic growth.
Countries like Rwanda have already made significant strides, integrating coding and artificial intelligence into their curricula. Meanwhile, Ghana is making efforts to digitize educational records and streamline student assessments. Will Nigeria, Kenya, and other African nations catch up?
