Rwanda Coding Academy
Rwanda Coding Academy attracts students who are "Born To Code" who have completed ordinary level (Lower secondary) to undertake a three years graduation software engineering course, specifically in the field of software programming, embedded programming and cyber-security. <p></p> Background <p></p> Rwanda Coding Academy (RCA) is a special model school incepted by the Government of Rwanda. It is hybrid of both general education and TVET. It teaches Software Development, Embedded Systems Programming, and Cyber-Security. Rwanda Coding Academy is located in Nyabihu District, Western province. It was established on Jan. 28th, 2019 by the Gov’t of Rwanda. and was put under management of Rwanda Polytechnic (RP). Rwanda has embraced technology and is now preparing its young population for the future by launching a coding academy. <p></p> <mark>The school's motto "born to code" encourages young people interested in coding to pursue it as a career. The academy focuses on cyber security and software programming, and 28 girls and 32 boys enrolled in the first intake.</mark> <p></p> The Rwandan government and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) recently launched the Rwanda Coding Academy in partnership with the Ministry of ICT, Ministry of Education and Rwanda Polytechnic among other institutions. The Rwanda Coding Academy, which opened on the 4th of February 2019 with a total of 60 students; 30 girls and 30 boys. <p></p> The coding academy whose motto is: "born to code" targets students with an interest in coding and seek to pursue coding as a long time career. The $4.6 billion structure that hosts the coding academy and the Nyabihu Technical and Vocational Education and Training School (VTET) was deliberately built away from the country's capital, Kigali.
Creativity Lab
Limited access to laboratory and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) tools in schools affects children's interest in STEM subjects as they graduate from the primary level to high school and university. Overtime, this can negatively impact the quality of innovations that would otherwise drive the increasing technological growth of our country and the ability of students to participate in the global STEM 'revolution.' <p></p> Thus, Creativity Lab exists to bridge that gap by offering an innovative approach to teaching STEM, providing educational resources and practical tools for students to build their skills in robotics, creative coding and engineering. <p></p> <mark>Primarily, Creativity Lab also works with schools to support teachers to incorporate STEM activities into the classroom and conduct after school STEM workshops for children. Our inclusive model is particularly aimed towards making a positive impact with schools located in rural communities that may not have full access to STEM resources.</mark> <p></p> Incorporating hands-on STEM experiments in the classroom adheres to a competency-based curriculum and offers students the opportunity to challenge their critical thinking, problem solving skills and creativity. <p></p> Creativity Lab is building the next generation of problem solvers while preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow and knowledge to be active participants globally.
