A 17-year-old Ghanaian American, Hawa-Larai Haruna, has inspired Basic 6 students at Tunga Islamic Basic School, part of the Dansoman Cluster of Schools in Accra, by donating 40 digital devices and leading a three-day hands-on workshop in digital arts.
The donation included 20 HP laptops, 20 drawing tablets, and 20 external memory cards, aimed at introducing students to digital creativity and expanding their artistic potential using tools such as Ibis Paint.
Miss Haruna, a digital arts trainer, explained to the media that her initiative seeks to provide students with practical exposure to digital design, helping them develop both creative and technical skills essential in today's digital world.
Through her training sessions, students are learning how to use drawing tablets and art software to create their own digital masterpieces, as well as gaining skills that could shape future careers in the creative tech industry.
