In Africa, mobile technology has significantly transformed and improved access to education. In some countries, the use of mobile phones, tablets and laptops for e-learning has expanded access to quality educational resources and knowledge in remote areas where traditional schools may be lacking. Online learning is also being adopted by communities and education advocates as an alternative to physical learning in areas where insecurity has affected access to schools. This development has enabled students to easily access educational materials, participate in interactive lessons, and even connect with teachers from around the world. #steerinitiative #didyouknowfacts #educationforall #accessiblelearning #qualityeducation #transformeducation #educationalfacts

It is very true that a college degree can provide valuable knowledge and open doors but it doesn’t guarantee success on its own. In today’s fast-evolving job market, continuous skill development (hard and soft skills) and real-world experience are a necessity. Embracing opportunities to learn and adapt beyond the classroom is crucial for staying relevant and achieving long-term career success. #steerinitiative #mythsvsfacts #qualityeducationforall #learning #transformeducation #skillup #beempowered

Studies have shown that when you explain topics or concepts to other people, it significantly enhances your own understanding of the topic. This approach is generally known as the Protégé Effect and it leverages the art of teaching as a learning tool. Teaching others is known to help you engage better with a material, leading to deeper comprehension and retention. If you have tried this method before, please let us know how it worked for you✨ #steerinitiative #learningtips #educationaltips #teachingtips #education #learningstrategies
