Practical Computer Education by Coni T.
Tawong is launching a campaign to raise funds on Indiegogo and is soliciting
for donations and raising funds to enable a reprint of this textbook. It has been
used to train hundreds of students in vocational schools for example in Tobby
Vision Computers and thousands in Secondary Schools have used it and a lot more
demands are coming to us from those who need to use it to integrate ICTs, prepare
for the GCE ‘O’ level, Certificat d’Aptitude Professionnelle (CAP) in Cameroon
where the need for it is very high.
In 2011 the author
and his team of seven students published the book with financial assistance
from Mgr. Ronald Hishon, Short Close, Poole, Dorset England.
We submitted Practical Computer Education
to the book committee of the Ministry of Secondary Education during which
studies the textbook was approved for use in Anglo-Saxon secondary schools in
Cameroon during the 2012/2013 academic year (see national textbook gazette at www.minesec.gov.cm ).
Anxious, to see our
students comply with 21st century education, we had launched our
fund raising campaign to raise $1,200 which will enable us reprint more copies
as we have carried out a gesture of five hundred printed copies for gratis to
secondary schools which have a laboratory and offer computer science.
We shall appreciate
whoever gives a helping hand to this project to improve the computer literacy
in this society.
