We are delighted to share that the 𝐢𝐊𝐚𝐦𝐯𝐚 𝐊𝐙𝐍 𝐀𝐫𝐝𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐨 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 commenced this past Friday, facilitated by our lead researcher Francis Junior Djuimo at Regent Business School's #iLeadLab. This workshop, designed specifically for the dedicated volunteers and tutors of the youth team at the IkamvaYouth Centre, marked the beginning of a thrilling journey. The first session was a great success, setting a solid foundation for the upcoming events. Participants engaged in intensive, hands-on activities, sparking interest in #coding and #robotics. This training is a crucial opportunity for our volunteers and tutors to acquire invaluable skills for future endeavours. AlgoAtWork and the IkamvaYouth Centre are dedicated to empowering youths from under-resourced communities, with a shared focus on education, skills development, and sustainable growth. We look forward to the upcoming sessions as our volunteers and tutors continue their journey of learning and discovery. 🤗 #AlgoAtWork #iKamvaYouthCentre #RegentBusinessSchool #Arduino #OnArm

Having robotics and coding as an extracurricular activity immensely benefits the youth, especially those from underserved communities. Engaging in these activities ensures that they are not exposed to negative influences. Instead, they are immersed in constructive and educational pursuits that foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. At 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐄𝐓𝐀 𝐑𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛, we provide a safe and supportive environment where young minds can explore the fascinating worlds of #robotics and #coding. Our junior engineers gain access to opportunities that can transform their futures, empowering them to become tomorrow's innovators and leaders. 💜 #CHIETA #CHIETARoboticsClub #AlgoAtWork

In a society where #technology has become an integral part of our daily lives, every child must have access to the tools and resources necessary to succeed. We understand that the digital divide can create barriers for underprivileged students, limiting their opportunities and hindering their growth potential. That's where we come in. Our Club is committed to bridging this gap, empowering underprivileged youths with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the digital landscape. Through our innovative and engaging programs, we provide a platform for our junior engineers to explore, learn, and excel in the exciting world of #robotics and #technology. #CHIETA #CHIETARoboticsClub #AlgoAtWork #BridgingTheDigitalGap 

At the 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐄𝐓𝐀 𝐑𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛, students explore the fascinating world of robotics, where #engineering and #technology meet mathematics and physics. This multidisciplinary approach captivates their curiosity and deepens their understanding. A standout success is our introduction to Python #programming, which sparks engaging questions and discussions. Python's intuitive syntax and flexibility make it perfect for beginners. Students explore applications like web development, data analysis, #AI, and #automation. Learning #Python equips them with valuable skills, preparing them for success in today's tech-driven world.

So, last week, Kingsley Kwesi Mensah took 'uNhlanzeko' to an open area for a spin... Just kidding! 😅 This is actually a rendering in computer-aided design. 📐 What you're seeing here is a sneak peek of #uNhlanzeko. In June and July. he'll be machining and #3Dprinting parts, assembling them, and conducting tests at Algorhythm Living Lab to gather valuable insights for her development. Stay tuned for more updates as we bring uNhlanzeko to life! Enjoy these renderings for now and get ready to witness the exciting journey ahead. 💡🔧 #Innovation #Robotics #Prototyping #TechDevelopment
