New Milestones, More Opportunities

The headteacher of the school, Ms. Specioza Kasowole, expressed her gratitude to the UCC and UCUSAF during the launch ceremony. She acknowledged their significant contributions in providing high-speed internet connectivity (5mbps) facilitated by RENU, supplying ICT books for learners, and supporting the implementation of the new ICT club.

However, challenges remain. There is a pressing need for a technology upgrade in the school, particularly to revive non-working computers and broken servers. The computers were initially intended to use the NComputing software, which has unfortunately been discontinued. Furthermore, the school is grappling with a shortage of computers, a gap that has widened due to the growing student population.

We’re mindful of these hurdles and believe that with collective efforts, we can overcome them. After all, each obstacle surmounted brings us one step closer to our goal of bridging the digital divide.

Acknowledging the Pillars of Support

Ms. Kasowole also extended her appreciation towards Hon. Rebecca Kadaga for her generous assistance in providing a bus and supporting the reconstruction of the school.

Forging Ahead with the ICT Club

The establishment of the ICT club has stirred up an infectious enthusiasm among learners. Our team at KAWA, together with deputy headteacher Ibrahim Kaggwa and ICT teacher Lawrence Inhensiko, are committed to nurturing this excitement. We aim to equip the students with invaluable digital skills that will shape their futures and potentially, the future of Uganda.

To this end, KAWA has offered numerous resources such as talking books and a structured one-year plan with weekly activities. These resources aim to inspire, engage, and challenge the young minds, leading to deeper learning and creativity in the realm of ICT.

This initiative marks a significant stride in our continuous efforts to equip the next generation with digital literacy skills. It’s a leap towards an empowered, connected, and tech-savvy future. Together, let’s embrace the digital revolution!

Implementation of Lower Secondary Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC)

Schools are implementing the Lower Secondary Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) with S.1 learners as they progress to the next class. With the support of NCDC and the Master Trainers, teachers are gaining a deeper understanding of the implementation of the curriculum.

Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a key focus with projects that students will undertake at every end of the topic. Teachers will then be required to note the student's progress before any new topic is introduced.

KAWA recommends the creation of Teacher mentors and a Professional Learning Community (PLC) in the school so that teachers who have not been oriented to the revised curriculum can get help from their colleagues at school to understand the expectations of the new curriculum.

In the new curriculum, there is a provision for the pre-Vocational component of education which is in the line with the World of Work requirements and in line with the Skilling Uganda strategy. This is aimed at preparing learners at an early age with the opportunity to understand and appreciate vocational work, recognize its importance and later join the world of work in this area.

Subjects that will benefit from this arrangement include performing arts, Agriculture, ICT, Nutrition and Food Technology, Art and Design, Technology and Design, Physical Education, and Entrepreneurship.

Learners studying these subjects will have the option of being assessed in the occupational competence equivalent to Level 1 at the Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT) at the end of senior three.

The KAWA team delivered talks and engaged in conversations with some of the club members. Some of the students enthusiastically shared their learning project works that they already were embarking on. The KAWA team handed to the club about 100 T-Shirts branded in UCC logos, and a pair of Samsung Galaxy tablets donated by UCC for implementing club activities.

The pilot project is UCC's long-term commitment to supporting clubs in maintenance and basic repairs of computers and accessories in their respective schools.

UCC/KAWA Launching-ICT-clubs-Session

However, KAWA's mandate goes beyond maintenance and repair to building capacity in the participating learners to utilize ICT to leverage 21st-century learning practices and make ICT more relevant in their lives and education.
Key objectives outlined are:
¢ Building in the students the skills of using ICT more effectively and responsibly.
¢ Enabling creativity and innovation, critical thinking, and problem-solving mentality
¢ Being able to integrate ICT in mainstream disciplines, other clubs, and schools' activities for learning purposes.
¢ Being able to purposefully network, collaborate, and work as a team.
¢ Empowering learners to address real issues affecting their communities and finding solutions to them through innovative learning projects.
¢ Developing a sense of ownership of and taking part in the maintenance of equipment of their respective ICT departments.

KAWA's talk with the club learners encompassed the aims and objectives of the project, 21st-century challenges and opportunities that young people must equip themselves to face, and employability skills “ hard and soft.

Clubs members were urged to act responsibly in interacting with their schools' ICT properties and to guard them jealously. They were also urged to fully participate in Lab maintenance as a principal club learning activity.

Each of the club is expected to come up with at least one innovative learning activity. Outstanding clubs will be recognized for their efforts.

ICT Computer Laboratories

UCC through UCUSAF has installed ICT computer labs in over 1,000 secondary schools, tertiary institutions, and universities. All these schools currently teach the ICT subject either at O-level or/and A-Level.

UCC/UCUSAF identifies the sustainability of ICT laboratories in Schools and Colleges as a major Challenge. A study done in 2018 found that 40% of the laboratories were in semi-operable condition (RCDF Report). The maintenance issues identified were of a kind that could easily be trouble-shot by a trained computer teacher.

Even Schools that have not yet received Computers from UCC are being supported through teachers' capacity building.

Gaps to be addressed by KAWA Uganda Workshops include the Pedagogical skills gap, ICT skills gap, Formative assessment gap, Understanding and interpretation of the syllabus gap.

Other Modules are using ICT in assessment for Learning and Record keeping, Implementation of the New Competence-Based Curriculum and New teacher policy, Learner Centred Teaching and Learning, Integration of ICT for enhanced teaching and learning, Classroom management, and Project-Based Learning in this school.

ICT Computer Laboratories

UCC through UCUSAF has installed ICT computer labs in over 1,000 secondary schools, tertiary institutions, and universities. All these schools currently teach the ICT subject either at O-level or/and A-Level.

UCC/UCUSAF identifies the sustainability of ICT laboratories in Schools and Colleges as a major Challenge. A study done in 2018 found that 40% of the laboratories were in semi-operable condition (RCDF Report). The maintenance issues identified were of a kind that could easily be trouble-shot by a trained computer teacher.

Even Schools that have not yet received Computers from UCC are being supported through teachers’ capacity building.

Implementation Lower Secondary Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC)

Schools are implementing the Lower Secondary Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) with S.1 learners as they progress to the next class. With the support of NCDC and the Master Trainers, teachers are gaining a deeper understanding of the implementation of the curriculum.

Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a key focus with projects that students will undertake at every end of the topic. Teachers will then be required to note the student's progress before any new topic is introduced.

KAWA recommends the creation of Teacher mentors and a Professional Learning Community (PLC) in the school so that teachers who have not been oriented to the revised curriculum can get help from their colleagues at school to understand the expectations of the new curriculum.

In the new curriculum, there is a provision for the pre-Vocational component of education which is in the line with the World of Work requirements and in line with the Skilling Uganda strategy. This is aimed at preparing learners at an early age with the opportunity to understand and appreciate vocational work, recognize its importance and later join the world of work in this area.

Subjects that will benefit from this arrangement include performing arts, Agriculture, ICT, Nutrition and Food Technology, Art and Design, Technology and Design, Physical Education, and Entrepreneurship.

Learners studying these subjects will have the option of being assessed in the occupational competence equivalent to Level 1 at the Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT) at the end of senior three.
