Profile for the 8th winner of the Africa Expo 2019

Name: AdeDamola K. McCarie
Nationality: Nigeria
Title of Innovation: The iSchool CLOUD Artificial Intelligence Virtual School & MultiBOOK Framework
Countries of Implementation: Nigeria
Number of years Implemented: 8.3
Category: Top 11(8th spot)
Problem being solved: Across Africa, the number of out-of-school children is escalating. Many among those that are in school are being tutored by incompetent teachers. As sub-standard private schools sprout up everywhere, it is rather impossible for governments to regulate, monitor and assess the quality of education from early years to primary, secondary and tertiary. And these non-government schools hardly use prescribed curricular and learning models. Textbooks that can be considered as adequate for learning in this age are way too expensive.

Description of innovation: The iSchool CLOUD Framework is a complete computerization solution for education. By implementing simple but effective Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality concepts, It makes it possible for established schools to enroll hundreds of thousands of more students from outside their immediate geographical locations into their Virtual School programs.
This system allows standard schools to partner with individual tutors and smaller schools in remote locations and less-privileged areas, given them access to the schools’ resources to use in their own classrooms.

For example, a village teacher that gathers his/her pupils under the shade of a tree can now connect to the virtual classroom of a bigger, established partner school (even in another country) and use their lesson plans and notes to teach his/her own pupils.
Not only that, these children (in remote, less-privelged areas) will be bonafide students of the partner schools as they will be enrolled into their systems and have all their leaning activities graded.
