Dr. Kwaku Afriyie, the Western Regional Minister, has called on school authorities to include e-learning in the academic curriculum to ensure that students become conversant with technology.<\/p>\n
He said the changing pace of academic work required that ICT and library services in schools were integrated in academic work to help students derive the best from technology.<\/p>\n
Dr. Afriyie said this when he visited some selected schools within the Metropolis to observe the students who were currently sitting for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).<\/p>\n
The Regional Minister was accompanied by Anthony K. K. Sam, Metropolitan Chief Executive, Mrs Afi Amafugah, Regional Education Director and Mrs Elizabeth Akuoko, the Metropolitan Director of Education.<\/p>\n
At the Badu Bonsu Senior High School, Mr Joseph Ben Asmah, Headmaster of the school, expressed concern about the way the community was using the school as a thorough fare which posed a security threat to lives and property in the school.<\/p>\n
He said institutions such as “schools, police stations and courts must be seen as monuments and not left unprotected”.<\/p>\n
The Regional Minister also visited the Bompeh Technical Senior High School in Takoradi where the school authorities complained about the lack of a technical laboratory to enhance practical work.<\/p>\n
At the time of the visit more than 500 candidates were busy writing the social studies paper.<\/p>\n
