Program Overview
What it is
A short, partner-led, offline-friendly program that helps students build practical technology skills and problem-solving habits. Sessions focus on real tasks that support learning, communication, and future opportunities.
Program identity
Numbers to Networks helps learners build confidence with technology through practical tools, mentorship, and problem-solving grounded in real life.
Skills that transfer
We focus on usable skills like basic computer use, spreadsheets, documents, presentations, and clear communication, so students can apply them right away.
Adaptable delivery
Lessons are designed to work in low-resource settings, with materials and workflows that can be adjusted to each partner site.
Curriculum Modules
Four days, partner-driven delivery
Day 1 - Arrival and preparation
Team orientation, final coordination with partner sites, and setup of teaching materials. We organize learning kits, confirm session flow, and prepare resources so tutoring runs smoothly across locations.
Day 2 - Refugee technology and applied skills tutoring (Day 1)
Tutoring at Refu+ture Library focused on foundational technology and applied skills, including basic computer use, spreadsheets for everyday tasks, presentation tools, typing, and one-on-one support. Later, we visit PAKB Orphanage for a community session with structured activities and hands-on learning designed to build confidence and engagement.
Day 3 - Refugee technology and applied skills tutoring (Day 2)
Sessions continue at Refu+ture Library with a new group, reinforcing mathematics application, document creation, and online communication skills relevant to education and work. We return to PAKB Orphanage for continued learning activities, followed by a visit to Aksinyata Pakubuwono to engage students through interactive workshops and discuss how Numbers to Networks-supported tools and resources can support ongoing learning.
Day 4 - Wrap-up and handoff
Program closeout with partner sites, final notes on what worked, and handoff of materials for continued use. We consolidate feedback and outline next steps for follow-up support where appropriate.
