Dr. Yaw Adutwum calls for greater investment in Basic STEM Education

NPP launched Basic STEM Program to train future leaders from early childhood – Dr. Adutwum

May 22, 2025
The former Minister of Education and Member of Parliament for the Bosomtwe Constituency, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum has stressed that education should not merely focus on children attending school, but more importantly, on what they are learning and what they become as a result of that learning. Speaking on the Epa Hoa Daben show with Bismark Brown on Happy 98.9 FM, Dr. Adutwum highlighted that improving a country's education system requires more than ensuring enrollment, the real emphasis should be on the content taught and its impact on students. He advocated for the implementation of effective educational content and modern teaching approaches to transform the sector. He specifically referenced New Bloom’s Taxonomy, a framework that guides educators on how to teach for deeper understanding and application, rather than rote memorization. Dr. Adutwum explained that Bloom's Taxonomy consists of six hierarchical levels: Remember, where students recall basic facts; Understand, where they explain concepts; Apply, where they use knowledge in new situations; followed by Analyze, Evaluate, and Create where students develop critical thinking, assess ideas, and produce original work. He criticized the over-reliance on rote learning or "chew and pour" in Ghana’s educational system, noting that while countries like the United States focus on higher-order thinking skills like analyzing, evaluating, and creating, Ghana tends to prioritize only remembering, understanding, and applying. Reflecting on his tenure as Minister of Education, Dr. Adutwum recalled introducing curriculum reforms based on Bloom's Taxonomy about four years ago. The first batch of students under the new curriculum was expected to write their BECE in the previous year. However, upon reviewing WAEC’s examination questions, he realized they were not aligned with the new framework. He urged the examination body to adapt accordingly, describing the misalignment as “a clear case where the tail is wagging the dog.” Dr. Adutwum asserted that teaching, learning, and assessment must be designed to broaden students' thinking not just to pass exams, but to prepare them for real-life challenges. He warned that an Education Minister unaware of this fundamental principle risks overseeing what he described as “education to nowhere.”

Dede Ayew will lead us to the promise land- Isaac Asiamah
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Minister for Youth and Sports, Isaac Kwame Asiamah, has promised Ghanaians that captain Andrew Dede Ayew will lead the Black Stars to win the AFCON and bring the cup to Ghana

The last time the Black Stars won the Africa Cup of Nations was in 1982. But the Minister for Youth and Sports is hopeful and believes the team can end the continental trophy drought in Egypt.

Dede Ayew led the Ghana Black Satellites to victory in 2009 U-20 World Cup in Egypt after beating Brazil on penalties in the finals.

However Isaac Kwame Asiamah believes Dede Ayew can replicate the same fate for the senior national team in 2019 AFCON in Egypt

“My capable capable, I was with him in Egypt in 2009. I saw teamwork in him so we won the U-20 World Cup in Egypt and we are going to do it again”

“We are bringing the cup once again and so teamwork is critical in this endeavor. I have the assurance from this team that they will do whatever they can to rise the image of Ghana. I can assure you that they are going to subdue their individual egos and die for mother Ghana because Ghanaians are thirsty for the cup. We are calling Ghanaians to pray for the team, support them to ensure that on our return, we come with the cup,” Asiamah stated.

Nana Addo yesterday hosted the Black Stars to a farewell dinner as the team is expected to pitch camp in Dubai from June 1.
