University of Ilorin (UNILORIN)
Management has delivered on its promise to make learning in the
institution digital, with the distribution of tablet computers to Freshers on Thursday at the University’s Main Campus in Tanke, Illorin.
The “One Student, One PC Tablet” project was initiated by former vice-chancellor of the university, Prof Ishaq Oloyede, but the project is being implemented by his successor and the current VC, Prof Abdul-Ganiyu Ambali.
Ambali said the initiative was to make students
active players in the information age, urging them to use the device for
their academic benefits through e-learning. Ganiyu Quadri, a 100-Level
Mathematics Education student, who benefited said he was delighted upon
receiving the tablet, saying that he did not have a smart phone to
search for information on the Internet.
“The tablet will give me the break to do research
on-line and also widen my knowledge, especially on the mathematics
field,” he said.
Olaitan Giwa, a student of Agriculture, said the
device would improve students’ academic performance and complement
lecturers’ efforts to impact knowledge on students through modern
techniques.
