The Consequences of Computer Theft on Special Needs Education
The Impact of Computer Theft on Special Needs Education
The theft of 38 computers from three schools presents a major setback for students with special needs. These schools were recipients of modern computer resource centers, thanks to contributions from the MTN Foundation in collaboration with Sense International-Uganda in November 2023.
The Shift to Theory Lessons
Due to the loss of these essential resources, teachers are now compelled to shift back to theory-based lessons, which significantly limits students' hands-on learning experiences.
Conclusion
This incident highlights the vulnerability of educational institutions to theft, and underscores the need for improved security measures to protect valuable educational technology.
