Nsutaman Catholic Senior High School in the Sekyere Central District has climaxed its golden jubilee activities with a grand durbar of stakeholders to take stock of its 50-year journey. Established in 1973 by the Nsuta State, the Catholic Church was invited to partner with the founders in an effort to instill discipline and moral uprightness in the students. With an initial intake of 40 students, the school with current student population of over 2,000, has produced prominent personalities contributing to national development in various fields. The event which was held on the theme, “Celebrating Our Past and Igniting Our Future in a Challenging Environment”, was attended by stakeholders such as old students, traditional leaders, past heads of the school, members of the Catholic Church, parents, District and Regional Education Directorates, among others. To appreciate the invaluable contributions of persons who have played diverse roles in the growth and development of the school over the years, special awards were presented to certain individuals as part of the celebration. Students who excelled in their academic works also received awards as a way of motivating others to take the studies seriously for such recognition. Mrs. Victoria Ussher, Headmistress of the school, paid glowing tribute to the founders, the Catholic Church and all her predecessors for their respective roles in shaping the lives of thousands of students and nurturing the school to its current state. She recounted measures being put in place by management to achieve academic excellence, disclosing that about 93 per cent of students who sat for the 2023 West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) qualified for tertiary education. As a Catholic school, the Headmistress said not only were they committed to pursuing academic excellence but also moral uprightness, adding that, the school chaplains had been engaging students on the need to uphold the tenets of Christianity. On infrastructure, Mrs. Ussher mentioned a number of government funded projects including a 12-unit classroom block, 2000-seater assembly hall, 400-capacity girls dormitory, an administration block, 460-capacity boys dormitory, science laboratory, six-unit classroom block and a three-unit classroom block.

In the Ashanti Region, the young women of Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem Girls Senior High School's engineering club are not just reaching for the stars; they're engineering their path to get there. Their recent feat? The girls have constructed a model aircraft designed to soar the skies, fulfilling security and data collection roles. What they have done is not just a story about a model plane taking flight. It's about breaking barriers and inspiring a generation. In a field where women have been historically underrepresented, these students are proving that gender is no boundary to innovation and expertise.  Their aircraft, more than a testament to their technical skills, represents hope and opportunity. It's a glimpse into a future where Ghanaian women lead in the aviation and aerospace industries. The engineering club has become a beacon of hands-on learning, bringing theory to life and showcasing how practical experience can ignite a passion for learning. The story takes a grander leap as the Ministry eyes a partnership with a US-based institution, aiming to lay down international collaboration bridges in Aeronautics and Aerospace engineering. This potential affiliation isn't just an exchange of knowledge; it's an investment in the young women who will one day be at the forefront of engineering innovation. The aircraft, while a model, symbolizes something much more significant: the ascent of female engineers from Ghana on the world stage. The girls of Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem SHS are not just students; they are the pioneers of tomorrow, with the power to lift their community and their country to new heights.

The classroom of the future, shaped profoundly by the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is not a distant vision but a reality in the palms of today's students. This transformation promises to customize learning like never before, providing tools that adapt to the pace and style of every learner. As students actively integrate AI into their education, the awareness of its pitfalls is just as critical as harnessing its capabilities. This new frontier of learning empowers students, educators, and educational institutions to shape their educational journey like never before. Harnessing AI for Enhanced Learning AI in education extends from sophisticated tutoring systems to language learning apps and even software that helps write essays. For instance, AI-driven tutors like Socratic or Brainly can provide personalized feedback to students, identifying their weak areas and offering tailored practice exercises. Programs like Khan Academy and Coursera use AI to adapt to individual learning processes, while Duolingo's AI algorithms make language learning accessible and fun. Other examples include plagiarism checkers like Turnitin, which uses AI to compare student work against a vast database of academic papers, and virtual reality tools that simulate real-world scenarios for practical learning. Research databases and tools like Semantic Scholar or Google Scholar leverage AI to sift through vast academic papers, enabling students to find relevant information efficiently. In the creative arena, AI can help art students explore different styles or inspire writers with novel ideas.
