Abule-Ijoko
Programing Bootcamp
15th - 20th, August 2022
We need to get about 20 more laptops and other items to make the training more effective so that at most two students get to share one laptop. You can donate in cash or physical item(s).
Summary of the Program
Ijoko Programming Bootcamp is a free 1-week training that gives kids and teenagers between the age of 8 and 18 in the community, the opportunity to learn to program effectively and build projects. Learning to program gives kids more confidence with technology: The fact is, most students won’t go on to become professional coders, but whatever occupation they pursue, learning the basics of coding will give them a sense of confidence with technology.
The programming Bootcamp offers learning flexibility, high returns on investment, and extensive student support services. The Bootcamp also combines instructor-led sessions, independent study, practice assignments, and group projects. These programs provide opportunities to use industry-standard software and technologies. This ensures that students develop strong theoretical foundations and applied knowledge.
The Objectives of the Program
- To foster critical thinking and creativity skills through ICT learning
- Encourage careers of underprivileged students through STEM Education
- To bridge the digital skills gap
- To sensitize students on science and technology
- To train students on the basics programming language such as Scratch, Python, and Web development.
Why we need your support
It is a great concern to us that most African children are not exposed to the use of technology at a tender age unlike their counterparts in the western world. In a bid to curb this issue, we are making technology more approachable by creating resources designed with empathy for the kids and teenagers in rural areas within Nigeria, and Abule Ijoko happens to be one of those places.
We want to catch their young minds and engage them with tools to help them learn, BUT we need support (funds) to make this dream a reality. The project is open to supervision by you just to foster a better relationship with Rubies Technologies.
Our overarching aim is to improve the learning outcomes and growing interests of children in coding. Our evidence is out there on all our social media platforms and on our website.
