The first-ever Digital Interactive Board has been launched at the Special Boys Correctional Center in Oregun, Lagos, marking a transformative step in the education of young inmates.
This innovative technology aims to revolutionize teaching and learning, offering an immersive and engaging experience that promises to break the barriers of traditional education behind bars.
“This initiative is just the beginning of our efforts to transform the lives of inmates and empower them with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed upon release,” said a spokesperson for the Inmates Educational Foundation.
The Digital Interactive Board allows educators to design interactive lessons, boosting student participation and improving retention rates. With the technology now live at the center, inmates can experience education in an engaging, fun, and innovative way.
The Inmates Educational Foundation has long been committed to bringing education closer to those incarcerated, with the belief that education is the key to unlocking potential. “We believe that everyone deserves a second chance, and education is the key to unlocking their potential,” the spokesperson added.
“The launch of this digital initiative highlights the foundation’s dedication to breaking barriers and creating opportunities for rehabilitation through education.” It is a significant milestone for the Special Boys Correctional Center, and a step forward in creating a more just and transformative correctional system.
