COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SERVICE
A quick baseline study has shown that a large number of First year University students in Tanzania have never used a computer before. The same challenge has been observed at St John’s University of Tanzania. The Centre for Information and Communication Technology (CICT) at St John’s University of Tanzania has developed, as part of its Community Engagement, an ICT Skills 4 Primary Schools (ICT4PS) project. Through this project, Primary School students around St Johns’s University of Tanzania (SJUT) have sessions every Saturday to come to the University Campus, Chief Mazengo Campus in Dodoma, and use Computer Labs for workshops and skills training.
