According to him, technolo­gy was revolutionising education and the world of work and there was the need to prepare students towards that shift.

Dr Apaak made the pledge at the launch of the Asanka Plat­form— an innovative learning and teaching tool designed to provide affordable, flexible, and custom­isable educational resources to schools and institutions across Ghana.

The platform’s offline capabil­ities ensure that students and edu­cators can access quality learning materials without being hindered by network challenges and aligns with the Ministry’s commitment to leveraging technology to support effective teaching and learning.

Dr Apaak said integrating tech­nology in education to enhance accessibility and improve learning outcomes was very important, stressing that “The ASANKA Platform is a game-changer for schools, especially those in areas with limited internet connectivity.”

He further noted that the ASANKA Platform was a critical step towards achieving inclusive and equitable education in Ghana.

In a related development, the Deputy Minister has paid a work­ing visit to the Ashaiman Cluster of Schools to interact with teachers and students.

The visit was geared towards as­sessing the conditions at the school and to provide him with first hand insights into the dedication and challenges of the teaching staff.

During his interaction, Dr Apaak commended the teachers for their unwavering commit­ment and hard work in shaping the minds of future leaders. He acknowledged the critical role they play in the education sector and assured them of the government’s continued support.

He emphasised that the Minis­try of Education is committed to improving conditions of service for teachers and ensuring that adequate learning and teaching materials are provided.

Dr Apaak urged the teachers to continue their excellent work, assuring them that their dedication does not go unnoticed.
