Project Description and Impact
Eradicating the unskilled educated with STEM Skill Development Partners
STEAM/STEM PROJECTS
Education in Ghana is producing Ghanaians who are interested in creativity, innovations, problem solving skills which has impact in community and yet have little or no hands-on skills. As a result of unavailable practical exposure to the application and integration of Science, Mathematics, Art, etc., in exploring, discovering, creating things from available resources which would facilitate creating solutions to problems.
Therefore, there are gaps in changing mind-set, training teachers and retraining the young population in developing sustainable creative problem-solving skills.
TBF Creativity Hub is thus activating great potentials through application of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM/STEM) in youngsters through practical hands-on programs for exploring, discovering, and developing foundations to support the development of sustainable and creative problem-solving skills among the young people for community impact.
Our CREATIVE STEAM program serves Kindergarten (KG) to Senior High School (SHS) by intensifying hands-on activities with the STEAM/STEM concepts. Our website: TBF Creativity Hub (thebeaconfamily.net) has more information. Before the Covid pandemic, we reached four (4) schools in less than a year in addition to the holiday programs. We need assistance in our effort in reaching more schools in Ghana.
