Educators from more than 350 schools across Lagos and Ogun states have been empowered with skills required to meet the demands of 21st-century learning.\n<\/p>\n

This move was championed by Dufil Prima Foods Ltd, makers of Indomie Instant Noodles, as part of its sustained investment in the people shaping Nigeria\u2019s next generation at its 17th Annual Indomie Teachers Seminar held in Lagos\n<\/p>\n

The seminar focused on practical approaches to classroom engagement, technology adoption and inclusive education. It also highlighted how engagement with school communities extends beyond pupils to include the educators who shape their everyday learning experiences.\n<\/p>\n

Themed \u201c21st Century Teaching Essentials: Engagement, Technology and Inclusion for Nigerian Educators,\u201d the seminar explored ways to make lessons more interactive, encourage pupil participation and respond to different learning needs.\n<\/p>\n

Facilitating the seminar, Professor Mojisola Manuel, an early childhood education specialist at the University of Lagos and Acting Director of its Career Development Centre, examined how teachers could move beyond teacher-centred lectures and rote memorisation towards methods that promote critical thinking, problem-solving and active learner participation. She encouraged educators to consider how engagement, technology and inclusion could be applied in their classrooms.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event, Faith Ogechukwu Joshua, National Coordinator of the Indomie Fan Club, highlighted the relationship between the Indomie Fan Club and teachers within the school community. Through its school-based activities, the Fan Club engages pupils in an environment where teachers guide their learning and daily experiences.\n<\/p>\n

She noted that the connection through a pep talk to participating teachers and interactive activities helps boost the grooming of a well-rounded child who would contribute to Nigeria\u2019s economy in the future.\n<\/p>\n

In a goodwill message, Oluwakemi Olusaanu, Director, Ministry of Education, Lagos State, urged participants to apply the lessons gained rather than allow the seminar to become an annual routine. She emphasised that its value would be reflected in how teachers translated their learning into better classroom experiences for pupils. She commended Dufil for maintaining the programme and encouraged the company to continue.\n<\/p>\n

Welcoming participants earlier, Temitope Ashiwaju, General Manager, Corporate Communications & Events at Dufil Prima Foods Ltd, highlighted the importance of teachers to the programme and their influence on children\u2019s enduring affection for the brand.\n<\/p>\n

Ashiwaju said that Dufil\u2019s broader social investment cuts across education, health and community development, including scholarships for financially disadvantaged students, provision of books and support for school programmes spanning more than two decades.<\/p>\n

Now in its 17th edition, the seminar reflects Dufil\u2019s engagement with the wider school community, bringing educators into the conversation alongside its school-based activities with pupils and encouraging the application of approaches that can enrich classroom learning.<\/p>\n
