In too many classrooms, learning tools are imported, disconnected, or just don’t work. Children in Ghana and across Africa deserve more than hand-me-down technology—they deserve tools made with them in mind.
At Algo Peers Labs, we start by listening to students, teachers, and communities. We ask how learning really happens—and build from there.
How do African children engage with STEAM concepts when learning tools reflect their language, environment, and lived experiences?
What role does storytelling, local symbolism, or oral tradition play in knowledge construction?
How are children using STEAM knowledge to design solutions for challenges in their communities (e.g., water access, waste management, food systems)?
What learning environments best nurture this kind of agency and critical thinking?
What happens when students become co-creators of the tools they learn with?
How can participatory design deepen learning outcomes and community ownership?
