Digital Learning App launched to enhance access to quality education

A platform designed to provide students with access to a wide range of educational resources, and quality education has been launched in Accra.

The mobile application, with offline learning capabilities, career planning tools, AI-driven exam preparation features, and a virtual tutor, enables students to learn at their own pace, promoting inclusive education across the country.

Speaking at the launch of the Ghana Knowledge and Skills Bank (GKSB) Portal at the Accra Digital Centre on Tuesday, September 17, 2024, the Minister of Communication and Digitalisation, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, said the app would create a universal digital library accessible to all. 

“It will enable students achieve self-learning, problem-solving critical and creative thinking, digital and research competence, goal management, communication, investigation and media literacy”, she stated.

She highlighted that digitalisation offered solutions to many of the challenges facing the educational system, including limited access to quality resources and the educational disparity between urban and rural areas. 

“By embracing digitalisation, we bridged these gaps and ensure that every student regardless of their background or location has access to world-class education”, she added.

Mrs Owusu-Ekuful therefore, encouraged every Ghanaian to embrace the platform, explore its resources and take advantage of the opportunities it offers.
