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

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.”

Black Princesses coach, Yusif Basigi says preparations are going well ahead of the team’s FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifier against Guinea Bissau.

Basigi has invited 30 players to begin camping ahead of the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifier which comes off next month.

Speaking in an interview on Happy FM on the team’s preparation ahead of the game, Basigi said “Camping is going on well for the Black Princesses. The league is helping with the conditioning of the players so it’s not affecting our preparation”.

“I have a fair idea of the Guinea Bissau team. We will be playing against them on the 23rd of February”.

The Hasaacas Ladies coach added that the team will be pruned down to 25 players before the game.

“I have a very good team and it’s a headache for me on which players I have to select for the game. Even with the second team, the players are doing very well but I will prune by my squad before the qualifier”, he indicated.
