teachers from public and private primary and secondary schools to deliver Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects in a more practical, engaging and student-centred manner. In a press statement issued during the launch of a workshop in Dar es Salaam yesterday, Dean of AKU-IED, Dr Jane Rarieya, explained the objective was to ensure that both students and teachers fully participate in hands-on learning. “It is our mission to make sure teachers and learners are not just passive listeners. We want them to be actively involved in the learning process through real experience,” Dr Rarieya said. For years, many students in Tanzania have turned away from STEM subjects, largely due to teaching methods that made them appear difficult or uninteresting.
