Digital Education: Vine Christian School Transitions

Vine Christian School, located in East Legon in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana, has transitioned to digital education after partnering with RGC to install and maintain the school’s computer lab and enhance digital education among the students and teachers.

The partnership will eliminate the burden and high cost of installing and maintaining sustainable computer labs, which hinders schools from transitioning into digital education.

afiDE Ghana installed 21 workstations which come with remote monitoring, maintenance, updating of software, and replacement of hardware if necessary. The computers also come with Ghana Education Services’ current educational software.

 

RGC also provides a 4G Router with 25 gigabits of data monthly to enable educators and learners to explore the Internet and learn new things. There’s provision for a backup battery, and an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS).

RGC’s computer lab is designed not only for teaching computing but also for enhancing the learning of all subjects. To support this, RGC trains teachers to effectively integrate computer labs into their teaching. afiDE Ghana offers a structured four-stage training program for all partner schools in order to achieve this goal.
