Introduction of Communication
and Information Technologies into the class practices of primary
education in Senegal
(19-23 July, 2005, Dakar, Senegal)
|
 The
workshop organised by the UNESCO International Institute for Capacity Building
in Africa (IICbA), Dakar Node, from 19-23 July, 2003 aimed at helping the
teachers of Senegal to introduce ICT into their class practices.
Therefore 12 teachers coming from the primary schools Front de Terre, Serigne
Amadou Aly Mbaye and Charles Baudelaire of Dakar acquired knowledge and
know-how on Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) allowing them to
present their courses, to manage notes and to put animation in the presentations.
They also tackled the means of communication on Internet, especially the
surfing on Internet, the use of search engines and the creation of e-mails.
Thus, they will be able to have access to courses and recent documents on
Internet as well as educational websites. At last, they could design web
pages with Netscape Composer, which will enable them to continue the development
their own educational website that was undertaken during the workshop.  The
persons who have already been trained will be responsible for gearing
down this training to the teachers of their school.
The training was given Mrs. Agathe Fiset of the Ministry for Education,
Leisure and the Sport of Quebec (Canada) who offered her services free
of charge with the view of upgrading the teaching and learning practices
in Senegal. She benefited from the collaboration of Mr. Pape Amadou Sene
of the Institut National d’Etudes et d’Action pour le Developpement
(INEADE) and Dr. Alioune Moustapha Diouf of the Faculté des Sciences
et Technologies de l’Education et de la Formation (FASTEF).
