AI gives Lüderitz pupils a learning boost
Lüderitz pupils in Namibia have received an educational boost through new artificial intelligence tutoring laboratories established at Angra Pequena Senior Secondary School. Funded by BW Kudu and Namport, the initiative uses the Yyeni AI platform to enhance computational thinking and reduce teacher workloads.
Why it matters
Integration of local edtech solutions in public schools demonstrates how emerging markets can scale digital literacy and adaptive learning models.
||Kharas governor Dawid Gertze says the newly established artificial intelligence (AI) tutoring laboratories at Angra Pequena Senior Secondary School bridge the gap between classroom learning and the frontier of modern industry.
Gertze says the AI laboratory will equip pupils with computational thinking, problem-solving and digital fluency required to compete globally.
He made the remarks at the launch of two AI laboratories at Lüderitz last week.
“This AI tutoring programme is a human capital engine built to redefine teaching. As our regional educational results continue their upward trajectory, this facility provides the momentum to push our schools to unprecedented heights,” Gertze says.
BW Kudu, an off-shore oil and gas company, and the Namibian Ports Authority (Namport), injected N$1.5 million into the AI- tutoring laboratory – which runs on the Yyeni AI learning platform, with connectivity provided by Telecom Namibia.
