PRIMARY and secondary school teachers and school administrators can now reduce paper work and save money, thanks to the technological innovations through the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) that plays key role in automating school works.
Wamoja ICT Consulting Limited Managing
Director Rachel Msanga said in Dar es Salaam yesterday that her company
has developed system software christened UBUYU, which is intended to
help school teachers and administrators to increase efficiency and
enhance performance.
“With the system, school teachers and
administrators can perform multiple works performed daily, including
students’ registration, attendances, arranging results for examinations,
tests and home works,” she said.
She said the system was named UBUYU, the
smallest baobab seed that grows into a very big tree, signifying that
it would be developed and perform many functions, thus saving time and
money. Msanga said the survey conducted in Chang’ombe primary and
secondary schools as well as Minaki Secondary school found that teachers
and administrators were spending more time in other school works
instead of teaching due to paper work.
After the introduction of the
technological innovations, several primary and secondary school teachers
and administrators in Dar es Salaam have expressed great interest and
pledged to integrate it in the next financial year.
Wamoja ICT Consulting Limited Assistant
Programmer Joel Masaro said the use of ICT in enhancing the quality and
efficiency in the education sector is no more an option and should be
integrated to become part and parcel of the day to day activities.
With the system, he said, teachers and
administrators can just write the names of the students and get all
their information instantly.
