[kictanet] The Controversial ICT Practitioners Bill Has Been Passed!

Tue Jun 14 18:30:47 EAT 2022

Once again thank you for sharing.

I am concerned about the licensing aspect as it seems to be based on the Scratch programming environment that MIT released as an open-source.

Hi Listers,

Here are the copies of the recently KICD- approved coding curriculum developed by KODRIS Africa.

There is also an individual license available for parents to buy this since the programme is designed in a way that it can be self-taught. It has resources that you can look at by registering for a free trial here <https://studio.kodrisafrica.com/en/> .

At the same time school students are being taught to program:

The possibly sole currently approved program that is being used has the 
following faq:

I have no prior experience in computer programming. Can I still use 
Kodris Africa to teach my students how to code?

Our “Teacher’s Guide” enables teachers, even with no prior experience in 
computer programming, to easily teach their students how to code. With 
this guide, you will have access to lesson plans with explanations about 
the topics, sample class activities and solutions to various tasks.
