As part of efforts to integrate Design Thinking, Coding, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (DTCRA) into the academic programmes of UBE Model Smart Schools, the Commission through the Digital Resource Centre embarked on the ambitious project of developing a simplified DTCRA curriculum leveraging the domain expertise of seasoned resource persons drawn from academia, private sector and the Commission.
In his remarks, the National Coordinator DRC, Prof. Bashir Galadanci expressed gratitude to the Executive Secretary and the entire UBEC management for their foresight as well as a genuine interest in inspiring creativity, innovation and nurturing problem solvers stating that the vision of UBEC to integrate DTCRA in Basic Education Schools starting with the Smart schools will help the country raise globally competitive learners.
At the end of the workshop, a draft curriculum on Robotics, Artificial intelligence and Coding was developed for Primary 1-6 and Junior secondary school 1-3 classes.
