Trying to find a solution to children struggling to get access to book in schools,a team of entrepreneurs and inventors have come together in Ivory coast to establish digital schools in the villages where children can access the best course in the world!
The Qelasy team whose plan is to let their tablet go international were seen discussing the details of the upcoming Qelasy launch few days ago. First among others,is Their dream is for every classroom in Ivory Coast to be using Qelasy tablets then to other parts of the continent of Africa and the world at large!
At the moment the tablets are all made and assembled in China, but Qelasy's vision includes setting up a factory in Ivory Coast. "It's our dream," says the entrepreneur.
"I'm passionate about education because I would like our country, our continent to take the place that it should have in the world and without education it's not possible."
"This tool is very easy. With one finger you can access almost anything," he says as he displays how he has complete control over every student's tablet, with the ability to see exactly what they are doing.
getting the opinions of some of the students after using it,here's what one of them has to say;
"I love the tablet because actually we can learn lots of things," says eight-year-old Olivera Daplet, who then goes on to read one of the online books out loud.followed by another who say"I prefer Qelasy because it's lighter and we don't need a big bag," says Dominque Grah Thipourah, also eight, adding that it is the music and the animations she loves the most.
"For Ivory Coast to be an emerging country it must have children using technology," because,"Technology is not the future," she says. "It's already the present." says school principal, Marie-Loure Kindo Assandoi, who's considering introducing Qelasy into her school next year.
