Teacher from Ghana Uses a Blackboard to Teach His Students Microsoft Word
–>
Because they have no access to computers in the area, the teacher improvised and drew Microsoft Word on the blackboard instead.
In many parts of the world, many schools are not as privileged as American and first-world countries are. While first-world schools have massive libraries at the disposal of students, some countries barely have books to teach children with.

Having studied visual arts, Owura decided to put his skills to good use when teaching the creation of a Word document, by drawing a complete screenshot on the chalkboard for his students to copy and learn from. “I do it to make my students understand what I‘m teaching,” he said. “At least to give a picture of what they will see assuming they were behind a computer.”
His method seems to work well, as the kids enjoy his classes a lot and are able to learn effectively. “I do make sure they understand everything well before they leave the class.”
The teacher’s hard work quickly picked up admirers around the world. Social media users were quick to praise Owura for his determination. Technology is fast evolving, and Owura’s efforts and commitment are a good example for teachers in developing countries like Ghana, when sometimes a bit of improvisation is needed to fill the gaps that governments are unable to provide.
