Curriculum

history of the PBL Curriculum

The YEESI Curriculum was initially written by Dr. Fue and then, the meeting to discuss the idea and develop a full curriculum was set.

Several meetings in September 2021 were held. Dr Fue together with Prof Sanga, Prof Mtega, Dr Barakabitze, Dr Banzi, Dr Maurice and Mr Mkwazu took a retreat to develop full Student-centered Problem-Based Learning for Machine Vision in Agriculture.

The developed curriculum was then conveyed in front of the PBL instructors who added ideas and refined the curriculum.

The materials were initially developed by the team but instructors will develop more materials and problem-based exercises to be used by the students

The e-Learning Portal

The e-Learning Portal was deployed at (globally) http://41.59.85.2:8390/ and http://10.10.97.26:8390/ (locally in SUA's LAN) to share materials and knowledge in AI.
