The goals of the project include equipping the NWU’s pre-service teachers and in-service teachers with technological knowledge, bridging the digital inequality in schools and improving teaching and learning practices through ICT integration. According to Dr Shepherd Mlambo, a lecturer in computer science education in the School of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, the project has received initial donations of 25 HP Compaq Pro 6300 computers from the NWU and has identified two schools, Bodibe Secondary School and Tetlano Secondary School, to pilot the project.
