The MTN Foundation, in collaboration with the Senator Abiru Innovation Lab (SAIL) and Co-Creation Hub, held a training session for educators across Nigeria as part of its ongoing 12-week Teachers Programme, designed to equip classroom teachers with artificial intelligence tools and skills. Facilitating the programme’s 10th week, Oluwatobi Olayanju, a data scientist and business analyst at Data Science Nigeria, led a virtual session on AI literacy, responsible technology use, and practical AI integration into lesson delivery. Attendees reported gains in skills ranging from 2D animation and cloud-based note-taking to advanced AI-powered lesson planning and content creation. The programme addresses a gap highlighted by a 2022 survey by the Brookings Institution, which found that fewer than 30 per cent of sub-Saharan African teachers had received any form of digital skills training. Olayanju introduced educators to AI tools including chatbots for lesson planning, visual design platforms, text-to-video and text-to-audio converters, and assessment generators, as well as ditchthattextbook.com, a centralized repository for digital resources. The session included an interactive quiz via quiz.com, testing participants on content from the programme’s 10 weeks.
