An educationist and former
Resident Electoral Commissioner of INEC in Anambra State, Prof Chukwuemeka
Onukaogu, has called for the inclusion of internet as a separate subject in
schools.
Onukaogu, who spoke during a book
presentation, said teaching internet as a separate subject in schools will
equip students for the circular society.
He said, “We need to expose our
children on what to encounter in the society, the use of the social media and
others.
“We have to warn them of the
uncouth languages people use in the social medians and also help them to avoid
such languages.
“Internet should be taught as a
subject in schools. Internet literacy should be made a vital part of our
education,” Onukaugu said while reviewing the book.
Anambra state governor, Chief
Willie Obiano, who was represented by the head of service, Barr Harry Uduh,
said the book was worthy of being owned by every adult who makes use of the
internet in Africa, promising that the government of the state will distribute
copies to schools and libraries for use by people of the state.
