NSF Proposed Electronic way of learning to Northern Nigerian States.


Educating Nigeria’s nomadic populations via distance education (and using mobile-learning methods), can be viewed as a positive step towards effective implementation of the provision of Nigeria’s National Policy on Education (NPE) on equal access and brighter opportunities for all its citizens regardless of where they live. The establishment of nomadic schools in Nigeria’s various nomadic States, however, has failed to produce desired results because of the non integration of mobile learning technologies.

The literature has identified mobile learning as any service that supplies a learner with general electronic information and educational content that aids in acquisition of knowledge regardless of location and time.

In recent years, there has been a steady growth in Nigeria’s mobile telephone infrastructure and a concomitant acquisition and hence, use of mobile telephones amongst Nigerians. Increasing rates of accessibility throughout Nigeria is encouraging more and more people to have access to, or purchase, a mobile phone. Service providers in Nigeria are also on the increase to meet this growing demand, and over time, inter connectivity is projected to be both easier and more affordable, especially for Nigeria’s nomadic population.

Northern Nigerian Students Forum (NSF) therefore advice the ministries of education within Northern Nigeria to Introduce Mobile learning across Arewa so that we can fight illiteracy in our dear states.
