The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has welcomed the offer by Schoolnet India Ltd (@SchoolnetIndia) and Learnet Skills Ltd (@LearnetSkills) to partner with the Nigerian government and private-sector entities to implement its KYAN smart class solutions in Nigerian schools. He said the project, which aims to digitally transform education by introducing interactive smart boards and digital content to improve learning outcomes, will be very beneficial to primary and secondary schools in Nigeria if domesticated with local content. The Vice President, who spoke on Monday when he received a team from @SchoolnetIndia and @LearnetSkills led by its Managing Director/CEO, Mr. @RCMReddy1, described the KYAN smart class solutions as a rugged package with the capacity to deliver. He asked the Schoolnet Ltd team to liaise with relevant officials of the Federal Government of Nigeria to deliberate on how to domesticate the learning package by integrating local content for Nigerian schools. Senator @KashimSM cited the smart school initiatives in Edo and Enugu, two states he said have invested heavily in smart schools, saying that integrating such indigenous ideas and KYAN smart class solutions into a single unit will significantly benefit Nigerian schools. He recalled the use of KYAN smart class solutions to teach students in Borno State while he was Governor of the state, pointing out that such innovations would revolutionise Nigeria’s education system. “The beauty of KYAN is that it is a very rugged machine. You can use one card to teach 70 students. If you are to buy a tablet per student, the highest you will target are higher institutions or senior secondary school.”
