Make It Happen For Cameroon And Africa



Practical Computer Education by Coni T. Tawong is launching a campaign to raise funds on Indiegogo and is soliciting for donations and raising funds to enable a reprint of this textbook. It has been used to train hundreds of students in vocational schools for example in Tobby Vision Computers and thousands in Secondary Schools have used it and a lot more demands are coming to us from those who need to use it to integrate ICTs, prepare for the GCE ‘O’ level, Certificat d’Aptitude Professionnelle (CAP) in Cameroon where the need for it is very high.
In 2011 the author and his team of seven students published the book with financial assistance from Mgr. Ronald Hishon, Short Close, Poole, Dorset England.
We submitted Practical Computer Education to the book committee of the Ministry of Secondary Education during which studies the textbook was approved for use in Anglo-Saxon secondary schools in Cameroon during the 2012/2013 academic year (see national textbook gazette at www.minesec.gov.cm ).
Anxious, to see our students comply with 21st century education, we had launched our fund raising campaign to raise $1,200 which will enable us reprint more copies as we have carried out a gesture of five hundred printed copies for gratis to secondary schools which have a laboratory and offer computer science.
We shall appreciate whoever gives a helping hand to this project to improve the computer literacy in this society.
