The government has launched a pilot phase for integrating robotics into the national curriculum.
This initiative, which starts this academic year, aims to equip students with hands-on skills, encourage practical application of subjects such as physics, maths, ICT, and targets to foster problem-solving and critical thinking.The robotics program is a joint effort by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of ICT and Innovation among other partners aimed at ensuring that Rwanda n students benefit from and explore new technologies.
Thirty-three teachers from 26 schools across the country will act as ambassadors for the program, playing a key role in its expansion. Not all students will directly study robotics, as the course will be integrated into existing subjects. Mbarushimana explained that the programme fits seamlessly into subjects that involve computer science and physics.
The programme will be evaluated throughout this academic year, with plans to expand it nationwide based on the pilot's success.
