The Daylight foundation is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) inspired by the life of Late Prof. G. Olalere Ajayi (OAU, ile-ife) reflecting his lifelong desire and pursuit to bridge the divide between global technological realities and sustainable growth and development in Africa.
Functionally, it is a capacity development initiative that utilizes the benefits of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) to package and deliver Indigenous and easy to access educational contents for the grassroots, thereby facilitating an effective knowledge-driven economy through e-learning and e-governance in Nigeria.
The Daylight Online Schools (DOS) introduces a revolutionary technological approach to education by offering fully online schooling experiences. By transitioning to virtual classrooms, DOS aims to bridge the knowledge gap in Nigeria without the financial burden associated with traditional 'brick and mortar' infrastructure.
DOS offers various categories of virtual schools, facilitating collaboration between students and educators. The advantages of these virtual schools are manifold, directly addressing issues of overcrowding in physical educational institutions while promoting the integration of ICT-based teaching and learning activities at the grassroots level. Additionally, DOS serves as a viable source of income for educators, administrators, and, most importantly, the students themselves.
JOIN USThe Nigerian Tertiary Education Navigator (NTEN) provides an impartial overview of career opportunities available across all tertiary institutions in Nigeria. This initiative aims to tackle the challenges arising when youths select their future careers under the influence of parental pressure, peer dynamics, or due to difficulties in securing admission into their preferred disciplines promptly.
Such pressures have led to the marginalization and underfunding of what are deemed Non-Professional Courses, contributing to a cycle of neglect for these fields of study. NTEN seeks to rectify this imbalance by offering a comprehensive platform that showcases the wide array of academic paths available, emphasizing the value and potential of every discipline.
Through NTEN, users gain access to a detailed database featuring courses available in Nigerian tertiary institutions, inclusive of information on talent and academic prerequisites, career prospects, and the contribution of each course to national development and growth. This platform serves as a critical tool for students and educators alike, promoting informed decision-making and fostering a more balanced appreciation of all educational fields.
