The Earth Report - Hands on featuring the Global Teenager Project Ghana

The Global Teenager Project (GTP) Ghana was selected by BBC World to help feature in BBC’s World Earth Report documentary on appropriate technology (ICT) in Education. Schools selected for the exercise included Accra Academy, Morning Star School Limited and West African Secondary School. Students and teachers were filmed in the first quarter of 2005 while participating on-line in the Learning Circles. As the visit coincided with a web development training, the websites developed during the training were also captured. Other interviews included staff members of Rescue Mission Ghana, parents, teachers and head masters as well as the grandparents of one of the Think-Quest award winners were interviewed.

This feature on the Global Teenager Project Ghana in the World Earth Report will be broadcasted on BBC World on Saturday 30 July at 0530 GMT. Check BBC World for regional broadcast times.
