Description
The Namibia Summer Program is an incredible opportunity to acquire experience in the field in a developing country.
The program is run in close coordination with the Ministry of Education?s nationwide plan to deploy Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in all educational institutions. Volunteers will lead computer literacy trainings for teachers at primary and secondary schools to develop their basic computers skills as required by the Ministry. You will be among the first to train teachers using the newly developed computer literacy curriculum developed by the Ministry.
Because ICT training is done primarily after school, you will have the chance to become involved with your school and community in a variety of areas. Many choose to teach HIV/AIDS awareness classes, subject classes, athletics, and work with learners who need extra assistance in certain areas. Placements range from urban placements to small towns to fairly remote village schools spanning the entire country.
