Eric Oduro–Konadu writes: Develop computing and creative design arts in Ghana through structured play

Computing is rooted in the discipline of computer science, which studies information and computational processes including the representation, implementation, manipulation, and communication of information.

There are relatively few inherent natural limitations in computer science, as compared with other science and engineering fields such as physics, chemistry, and mechanical engineering. This means that the definitions and by extension, the capabilities of computing and IT often do not have an obvious finite upper bound for expansion. The future of Ghana is computing and creative design arts, therefore the way our basic schools teach IT must change.

Children are happy when they are engrossed in play. That can happen in different forms, like playing with toys, playing outdoor games, hide-and-seek, or simply by running. Children improve their motor skills, enhance their imagination and creativity by playing.

Playing enhances various aspects of a child’s development such as physical, social, psychological and intellectual skills. Both gross and fine motor skills come under physical development.

At the preschool level, learning through play is a very popular methodology of imparting education to children. The play-way method is mostly “activity-based” or “hands-on Experience” learning. Children step out of their home and familiar surroundings to learn among different people, who include their peers and teachers.

A child’s body development is influenced by physical activity. It provides opportunities for the movement of various parts of the body which help in his/her muscular development. Blood circulates more freely when they are playing, this helps in the elimination of bodily wastes. It helps the child to keep physically fit.

Learning is more effective when the child is more curious to learn. Play-way provides many such opportunities to learn while playing.

Play way methodology gives children a chance to play and work with their peers. Through this, they learn to coordinate, wait for their turn, take the lead, and follow. Play helps in stabilizing the emotions of children. They can overcome shyness, moodiness, timidity, stress, and sensitiveness.

Play is an important means of growth. There can be no growth without play. It provides opportunities for the overall development of the child. Play-way has educative value as it provides opportunities for children to learn.

It is a great motivating force for a child. Play-way activities are based on the needs of the children. It follows learning by doing and practice, which is very much effective than orals.

Play-way assures maximum freedom for the child with the result that he/she develops creativity and imagination skills.

Hence through play, children learn to co-operate and help each other while playing. Along with gaining knowledge, it inculcates various other skills in a child. It helps them connect with peers and teachers- easily facilitating the overall and holistic development of a child. The way to develop creative design skills is to allow our children to play whilst learning.
