ProjeKt Inspire

The inspiration behind founding ProjeKt Inspire is to cater the current need of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics teaching resources in schools. To add the practical way of learning that is missing from the current education curriculum used in schools; as most of them especially public primary schools are using a theoretical based curriculum which neglects the practicability of the lessons. Our learning approach supports students on understanding the context and science behind a particular phenomenon of the science subjects rather than studying for passing examinations. ProjeKt inspire to adequately prepare teachers with equipped practical knowledge and information regarding STEM to match the current learning demand following a significant growth of technology and industrialization. Mission Our mission is to ensure young people have access to affordable quality tools and resources necessary for Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields. Vision We envision a generation of well rounded African nurtured STEM professionals with an invaluable set of skills and knowledge for the innovation and development of Africa. What we do To schools, community, and parents, we’re the immediate solution that helps prepare their students for future careers and endeavors in STEM. We conduct classes, school sessions, after-school programs, youth boot camps, STEM-theme birthday parties, teachers training and a location where children can come and learn hands on STEM activities.

University

University of Ghana

This is the Information Technology age and at its core is Computer Science. The study of computer science is therefore critical if society is to take full advantage of the benefits Information Technology has to offer and make rapid economic advances. Computer science involves the study and development of applications that allow for our everyday use of computers, the software systems that support these applications, and the means and methods used to produce both applications and systems that behave reliably, correctly and ethically. At the heart of Computer Science lies the skill of computer programming and employers who hire Computer Scientists expect adept programmers with knowledge of current techniques and tools and the ability to apply sound engineering principles to the development, construction and maintenance of computer programs. The range of courses available in the department and the skills acquired by students enable them to find employment in many diverse fields of the economy and prepare our graduates for the computing industry, working in a project team (or research and development team), and to enable the graduate to bring specialist skills to that team. The course also provides the platform for further study or research through exposure to established and emerging technologies and methods, and to active fields of research in Computer Science.
