Get Your Students Certified

Hello folks. How are you doin’?  I hope ya’ll are well and keeping warm during this sweater weather that we have going on in the country. It was a very eventful weekend for me so I thought I should share some of that goodness with you and hope that it would bring some sort of warmth hehe.

For those who have been keeping up with the GSAs, we should start that reality show hehe, you know that we have this project of training the students in our respective campuses in online basics and have them certified.  And this project is dubbed ‘Get Your Students Certified’.  In line with this, we held our Kenyatta University training this past Friday and Saturday.

Posters

The objective of this event was to promote web literacy, online basics and internet safety on campus to the students that would like to be certified. Publicity around the school was done by posters which were stuck in strategic locations.

Map Your World {Google Map Maker Event}

Hello my good people. It is a beautiful day and I hope you are well and happy. I am also just peachy! Well that is apart from this aching back and shoulders that I have. Oh boy, I could kill for a massage right about now. It has been a long week. But the fact that it has been fruitful makes all the pain worth it. And before I continue any further, I would just like to thank you once again for finding your way to this blog. It is always a pleasure to have you on board!

Yesterday we had our edition of Google Map Maker, map your world. It is the second one I have attended. The first time, which was last year, I was there as an attendee. But who knew the second time around I would be there as the GSA. It was really awesome for me to get to have a feel of both sides. Come to think of it, the same can be said for Jeremy :)

The Event {Part Two}

Howdy my good people. How’s the going? As promised in this post, I told you that there would be a follow up event. Well, it came to pass this previous Friday! I am sorry it did not go down on the day I has said it would this is due to some challenges we got while trying to secure a venue. However, thanks to my hardworking colleague +njihia jeremy we managed to secure the Computer Lab in the Communication and Information Technology Department in the school.

I wasn't as nervous going into this second event as I was in the first. So I suppose what they usually say about experience and practice is really true hehe. This second event started at about 9:00am. It was mainly for class representatives and club leaders although anyone who was interested in attending was gladly welcomed. The agenda was taking the attendees through the usage of Google apps that would make their roles in leadership positions a bit easier.
