YAOUNDE, Cameroon, Feb 21 (NNN-AGENCIES) – Cameroon’s Minister of Secondary Education, Nalova Lyonga, said that, the country will begin teaching students in secondary school online, to “gain time and facilitate the learning process.”
“We have a lot of schools that are not built with the right material and methodology. We are looking into the teaching methodology. We want to go digital,” Lyonga said, during mid-term evaluation meeting of the 2018-2019 school year, held in the capital, Yaounde.
“The more subjects we have online the better, and this is a methodology that shows us how we can actually transform a 45-minute lesson into 10 minutes, by highlighting those very important elements of the lesson,” She added.
Cameroon already has a sample of the online teaching platform, and teachers are being trained on its usage, she said, adding that, the programme will cover about 2,000 secondary schools in the country.– NNN-AGENCIES
