To god be the glory
The LORD is my rock, my protection, my Savior. My God is my rock. I can run to him for safety. He is my shield and my saving strength, my defender.
Isaac Kofi Nti holds an HND in Electrical & Electronic Engineering from Sunyani Technical University, a BSc. in Computer Science from Catholic University College, an MSc. in Information Technology from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, and a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Energy and Natural Resources (UENR). Dr. Nti is a Lecturer at the Department of Computer Science and Informatics, UENR, Sunyani, Ghana. I have over sixteen (16) years of experience in higher education teaching courses like machine learning, data analytics, nursing informatics, system analysis and design, artificial intelligence, research methods, and more. As an academician, Dr. Nti has over 40 publications in fields like health informatics, data science, and machine learning applications across many high-quality peer-reviewed journals indexed on the Web of Science and Scopus. My research interests include artificial intelligence, health informatics, energy system modelling, intelligent information systems, social and sustainable computing, business analytics, and data privacy and security.
Teaching Philosophy Statement
I feel that each child is unique and brings something special to their education. I will encourage my pupils to express themselves and accept themselves as they are, as well as embrace others’ diversity. As a teacher, it will be my responsibility to assist each student in realizing their individual potential and learning methods. I will provide a program that accommodates each student’s unique learning style while also making the subject relevant to their lives. I will combine activities such as hands-on learning, cooperative learning, blended learning, projects, themes, and individual work that will stimulate and inspire students’ learning.
Work Experience
I have more than fifteen (15) years of teaching experience in computer science courses such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, IT projects, software development, C# and Python programming, and cyber security in and outside Ghana. Additionally, I have supervised over twenty-five (25) undergraduate project work and graduate theses in Computer Science, Information Technology, and Electrical and Electronics Engineering. Several of the projects I oversaw resulted in excellent publications. Additionally, I have conducted various workshops and seminars for students, faculty, and the general public on web design and development, reference management using Mendeley, writing an effective systematic review, and data analytics with Python, R, and others. Finally, I have in-depth experience with learning management systems such as Canvas and Moodle.
