Provide Solar Technology & Basic Computer Training

Dear CAPEC ICT supporters,

We are happy to announce that we have purchased 10 new computers for our CAPEC ICT program. This has increased the number of pupils and teachers who now have access to our training program at school.

Our training will continue during this school period and after school closes at the end of May. This will enable more pupils and out of school youths to complete their course.

The students have indeed made significant strides! To date, 80 children are now computer literate. They can use a computer to write their own personal stories and experiences, and write letters. At least half of the children who are in class 6 have created their own email accounts.

We are happy to let you know that we have another group of volunteers who will be running the ICT program during holidays. Over the past three months, we have learned new programs from them.

Thanks so much for YOUR support! Because of YOU, our ICT program has provided more students with the essential equipment, training and exposure needed to help them learn basic computer skills.

We could not do this without YOU.  Thank YOU!

Best Wishes,

Develop Africa team

Since our last report, the CAPEC ICT program expanded its basic computer training to include teachers and Grade One pupils for this academic year.

Thanks to your support, class teachers will be the first to receive training. Once they have acquired the necessary computer skills, we will focus on providing computer training for Grade One.

The children will be slowly integrated in this early stage to learn how to use IT related skills including binding, photocopying, laminating and paper cutting.

With your help, we are overcoming the many challenges we have encountered with our computer equipment. We hope to get a school generator as soon as funds are available.

We, the ICT program volunteers, and the teachers and kids who are receiving this essential computer training and exposure, say Thank YOU! for YOUR valued support.
