ASUS Regenerative Computer Multimedia Digital Creative Unit Education Project

The ASUS Regenerative Computer Multimedia Digital Creative Unit Education Project was developed to build a multimedia digital creative unit that will benefit mainly refugee children from Syria and vulnerable children from Turkey. The multimedia digital creative unit project is a combination of unit construction and curriculum development, encompassing both software and hardware. This project ensures that disadvantaged children in these areas will be able to access Information and Educational Technology, providing equal opportunities for these children to explore their creativity and fully develop their potential.

This project is one that is ongoing. As shown in the photos below, the children built a digital creative unit using recycled materials. The plan for the future is to hire local refugee teachers to teach computer skills. These local refugee teachers will have volunteers to assist and train them. If you would like to assist, please get in touch. The plan is to have a 1-hour class twice a week, with interactive and flexible teaching methods. They will teach everything from basic Microsoft applications to more advanced Google Cloud functions, depending on the students’ ages and needs. Most of the students are refugee children aged 8-18. Refugee women have also shown a great interest. There will also continue to be creative activities like the “Imaginary ASUS Computer” art project that has already happened. Outside of class hours, the digital creative unit is also open for students to learn and explore on their own.

In summary, the ASUS Regenerative Computer Multimedia Digital Creative Unit Education Project aims to bridge the information gap for vulnerable children and other vulnerable people interested, allowing them access to Information and Educational Technology, and as a result empowering them to realise their dreams.
