The Computer Clubhouse provides a creative and safe after-school learning environment for young people from under-served communities in the south west inner city area of Dublin.
Unlike a standard computer classroom, the Computer Clubhouse is a vibrant environment, with elements of an artist's studio, inventor’s workshop, TV newsroom, architects’ office, robotics lab, and music studio.
Activities are guided by current educational research showing that adolescents learn most effectively when engaged in designing projects, rather than memorizing facts or learning isolated skills.
The Clubhouse fosters a learner-centered, informal educational approach that encourages youth to discover their interests and apply their own ideas. Given the support to pursue their own ideas, young people overcome their apathy about education and develop internal motivation to learn and grow.
