The Oodua Foundation has said it will activate a digital education revolution by developing a comprehensive curriculum spanning the first 12 years of education, which will align with the Nigerian educational system.
This curriculum will seamlessly integrate digital skills and technologies across subjects, ensuring that youths are equipped with relevant knowledge and practical experience from their formative stage in life.
This project will take digital skills to all the 137 local government areas of the South-West states of Oyo, Ondo, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti and Lagos states.
“The strategic processes to implement and sustain the project, involve the development of comprehensive curricula, establishing coding clubs, organising coding competitions and setting up innovation hubs.
“Our key drive is create a thriving ecosystem that will promote innovation, economic growth and sustainable development in the region”, the foundation said.
The launch of the project which will be a hybrid session will involve physical and Zoom participation of secondary school students across the six South-West states.
However, DEFINED initiative is the beginning of a new era of digital revolution for the South-West region and Nigeria at large.
