Bobboyi  stated this in his opening remarks at a workshop on “Integrating Design Thinking, Coding, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (DTCRA) into the Smart Schools Programme” which was held at the Digital Resource Centre (DRC) of the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC).

He explained that the introduction of the programmes in the classroom would equip the students with the right skills necessary to inspire critical thinking, creativity, innovation and nurturing problem solvers amongst young learners.

He added that the vision of UBEC to integrate DTCRA in smart schools would help the country to nurture globally competitive learners.

In his remarks, the national coordinator of the Digital Resource Centre (DRC), Prof Bashir Galadanci said the workshop had brought together seasoned experts drawn from academia, private sector and the commission to brainstorm on the best ways of integrating the necessary skills in design thinking, coding, robotics and artificial intelligence (DTCRA) into smart schools.

UBEC spokesperson, Mr David Apeh, in a statement he issued yesterday in Abuja, said  the commission had recently established 37 smart schools across the country.

He said smart education was an ambitious programme introduced within the basic education subsector with one smart school in each state of the federation as well as the Federal Capital Territory.

“Fourteen of these schools have taken off in different parts of the country with learners in these schools being exposed to modern blended methods of teaching and learning, and the use of state-of-the-art technologies in improving learning outcomes,” he stated.
