| dbo:abstract | The Ghana Code Club is an after-school program in Ghana, Africa, that teaches children computer programming skills. The program was founded by Ernestina Edem Appiah, and the program is organized in various schools by Healthy Career Initiative, a nonprofit organization in Ghana. Healthy Career Initiative was also founded by Appiah, in 2007. Ghana Code Club is a digital fun club that is being organized in schools in Ghana for children between the ages of 8–17. It is an after-school extracurricular program. As of January 2016 in Ghana, the present information communications technology curriculum in Ghana does not include learning activities for technology. The club encourages children to attain modern skills in computer technology to help them with future careers. Some of the activities include learning how to create websites, animations and video games. In January 2016, the program began operations in five schools, and the organization is prepared to expand into most schools in Ghana in 2016, with a goal of educating at least 20,000 children. Challenges faced by the Ghana Code Club includes problems with internet connectivity in Ghana, and access to capital and computer equipment. As a result, a significant portion of the classes are presently taught on paper with printouts. (en) |
