Year one ran for 20 days in Jacques Morisho's internet café, over Starlink. Seven students learned ChatGPT, then Canva, then Sora, then Replit. They built posters, websites and games, and graduated only after passing a graded test in each. The year ended with a three-day mental-health workshop they planned and ran themselves, and a showcase for their families. I paid for it with a loan from my school, and I paid the loan back.
Two teachers in the café, and me on video calls from Austin.
