All For Good

I got this from a friend and fell like sharing it with you all:

An old story is told of a king in Africa who had a close friend with whom he grew up. The friend had a habit of looking at every situation that ever occurred in his life (positive or negative) and remarking, " This Too is for Good!"

One day the king and his friend were out on a hunting expedition. The friend would load and prepare the guns for the king. The friend had apparently done something wrong in preparing one of the guns, for after taking the gun from his friend, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off. Examining the situation the friend remarked as usual, "This Too is for Good!" To which the king replied, "No, this is NOT good!" and proceeded to send his friend to jail.

About a year later, the king was hunting in an area that he should have known to stay clear of. Cannibals captured him and took him to their village. They tied his hands, stacked some wood, set up a stake and bound him to the stake.

As they came near to set fire to the wood, they noticed that the king was missing a thumb. Being superstitious, they never ate anyone that was less than whole. So untying the king, they sent him on his way. As he returned home, he was reminded of the event that had taken his thumb and felt remorse for his treatment of his friend. He went immediately to the jail to speak with his friend. "You were right," he said, "it was good that my thumb was blown off." And he proceeded to tell the friend all that had just happened. "And, so I am very sorry for sending you to jail for so long. It was bad for me to do this."

"No," his friend replied, "This Too is for Good!"

"What do you mean, ‘This is good'? How could it be good that I sent my friend to jail for a year?"

"If I had NOT been in jail, I would have been with you."

This is asking you to try this approach to life. It changes your entire perspective on things.

Do u know the relationship between your two eyes? They blink together, move together, cry together, see things together & sleep together. Even though they never see each other. Friendship should be just like that! Life is like 'hell' without FRIENDS. Who is your best friend? Hope I am one of them.
Sometimes people are nothing, you make them something and when they become something, they feel that you are nothing.
Even at that, remember, ALL THINGS WORK FOR GOOD FOR THEM THAT LOVE THE LORD………….

In order to be free, we must learn how to LET GO . Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life.

What is it you would let go of today?

Keep on improving with your web 2.0 tools. Nice rest.

IBADAN CTA WEB 2.0 TOOLS REGIONAL WORKSHOP-APPRECIATION

I hereby gratefully and thankfully express my deep appreciation to CTA for granting me the special opportunity to participate in the  CTA Regional Web 2.0 Workshop hosted by my University of Ibadan between 4th and 8th October 2010, for which I gladly stepped down my initial plan to attend and present a paper at the 47th Annual Congress of my professional association-the Nigeria Veterinary Medical Association- holding same period in Makurdi, central Nigeria;  and for which I will be missing my university local conference grant for not attending; in favor of participating in the Ibadan web 2.0 tools regional workshop. It was a great favor as I had earlier missed out on the online application.
Although I knew and had been exposed to virtually all the Web 2.0 Tools, and have possession of the PLA 59 Book and pdf summary, which I have been using ,my knowledge base has been increased by at least 75% of what was taught by John Opigo (and his Ghanian colleague).
You have motivated and set me up on my next line of professional specialization of Participatory Veterinary Epidemiology, beginning for my Departmental colleagues, postgraduate and undergraduate students.
God bless CTA!.

Course Programme

Report of training on WEB 2.0

THE REPORT OF THE CTA WEB 2.0 TOOLS FOR NATIONAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES SPONSORED BY CTA ORGANIZED BY CENTRE FOR INSTITUTIONALISATION AND PARTNERSHIP, UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE, ABEOKUTA AT THE ICT MacArthur BUILDING, UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN BETWEEN 4TH TO 6TH OCTOBER, 2010
The training of the CTA web 2.0 tools for National Learning Opportunities took off on 4th Oct, 2010 at the ICT MacArthur BUILDING, UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN with verification and registration of delegates. Upon registration, the conference package comprising of training bag, Information Management Resource Kit (iMARK) CD, writing materials and CTA flash. The official opening ceremony commenced at about 10.30am with an opening prayer by Dr S.A Omitoyin after which Dr Ladokun introduced and  invited the team from UNAAB namely Prof S. Lagoke representative of UNAAB Vice Chancellor, Dr Akinyemi, Dr (Mrs) Helen Bodunde and the facilitators, Mr. Johnson Opigo and Richard Lamptey to the high table. The opening address was given by Prof Lagoke  the representative of the VC (UNAB) who reiterated the need and importance for training and re- training for information dissemination, linkages, sharing and networking. He stressed the importance of the use of WEB 2.0 tools for sharing and collaboration.


Mr Opigo who wore two caps as he stood in for Mr Roger Obubo the Training Programme manager in his own remark, pleaded for maximum concentration from the participants and assured them of an unforgettable experience. In his address, Dr Obubo, gave the history, aims and objectives of CTA and stressed the need for participants to make the best use of the opportunity available at their disposal. He stressed the fact that CTA is working in ACP states on the new Cotonou agreement (Management of Agricultural Information) in areas of her comparative advantage where she can make a special contribution. CTA therefore acts as a broker between organizations and professionals in ACP and EU states in order to enhance their technical capacity and skills in information and communication management for agricultural development.
On the basis of the new frame work, CTA works on these new objectives (1) to improve the availability of and access to relevant, adequate, accurate, timely and well- adapted information on priority information topics for ACP agricultural and rural development and 2  to improve the communication management capacity of ACP agricultural and rural development organizations. The major instrument to achieving these objectives is training thus the course WEB 2.0 tools.
The general objective of the Web 2.0 learning opportunities training is to improve the skills of researchers and development actors in the use of variety of Web 2.0 applications for information retrieval, collaborative generation of content, information sharing and effective and cost efficient communication.

The aim therefore is to improve networking and the management of agricultural information among development actors while the learning outcomes are that the participants would be able to identify and explore currently available Web 2.0 tools, create alerts to obtain desired information streams, subscribe to social networking sites, publish their own content online using blogging application, develop content on assigned topics using Web 2.0 tools using wikis and google docs, and utilize online mapping tools effectively. He concluded his speech by challenging the participants to develop their own action plan for the use of the collaborative tools in their various institutions.

The training was declared opened by Prof S. Lagoke, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Development) and the closing prayer for the opening ceremony was offered by Dr Gbenga Adeyemo after which a group photograph was taken followed by tea break.

The second session followed immediately with understanding the basic concept behind Web 2.0 where a short documentary was shown to the class. Web 2.0 tools were said to be primarily a social rather than a technological evolution. It is said to be a free, low cost, interactive web based service. The usefulness of social media in development which include connecting with people via social network, collaborating and doing things with other people, creating and sharing documents, finding, using, organizing, re-using content was stressed.
Sumptuous meal was served for lunch after which a marathon session on setting up google alert, language tools, advanced search and translation took place. The training ended at 6pm with light refreshment.

On Tuesday 5th Oct, 2010, the classes started at about 9am with blogging and its importance. The whole class became bloggers by creating individual accounts and posting information on it. Blog designs, colours, layouts and customizing of blogs were demonstrated. All participants were given CTA customised vest and biro  Breakfast/tea break and lunch were served at appropriate times while the training ended at 6pm with light refreshment.
Wednesday, 6th October 2010 had breakfast served before the start of the day possibly due to the magnitude of the work for the morning. Blogging continued with customization of blogs, image addition, introduction to linkedin, google docs (service provided free of charge by google) here documents are shared not sent. The class had pictures taken in CTA vest .The day ended at 6.15pm with all meals served.

On Thursday 7th Oct, 2010, the day started at about 9am with introduction to google maps that is viewing physical location on maps, satellite and areal. The class was shown how to include map on blogs, how to give direction and find specific location. The class was also introduced to wiki and wiki account was created. Information on wiki must be new but can also contribute to existing one. Personal action plan by individual participants was posted on the class blog and Ibadan, location of the training was located on the “CTA world map”.

The training has been an educative, interesting, interactive, informative but compact one. It is indeed an eye opener to many things that can be done in a new collaborative manner. Networking is no longer an option but a must.

The GOOD SIDE
The training was well organized and executed. The training materials are good and relevant. The instructors were good, friendly, accommodating, understanding, willing to assist, not bossy , able to impact knowledge but fast. The training content was well packaged, the environment was conducive, the training allows good interaction with one another and allows sharing of information, the feeding was adequate and the menu was well planned.

The FLAWS
The local technical staff were not always on ground when needed, long stretched hours without exercise or break, time table was not strictly followed (time management), time too short. Not enough time to master the tools.

CHALLENGES
Slow and fluctuating internet service, intermittent power surge (but there was stand by generator)

ACTION PLAN BY OMITOYIN S A

Training on web 2.0 tools for learning opportunities in Ibadan between 4th - 6th Oct 2010 was an eye opener to wider operation in terms of knowledge sharing , collaboration and improved communication skills to make a change in how work is done.Having benefited from the training, I hope to share the knowledge acquired with about 23 students and 10 members of staff of Oluponna Integrated Fish farm, Iwo This center is chosen because it is a youths skill acquisition center thus the importance of the tools.
The students will be sensitised on the need for networking in sharing information and in collaboration. They will also be exposed to the use of blogs and some other google tools.
I hope to organise a two days training sessions using the materials obtained at the CTA training in Ibadan.
 To this effect, i will need to duplicate the Information Management Resource Kit CD (35) copies and also transfer the information on the flash ( pen) on the institution main computer. I hope to make the training as simple as possible  since the educational qualification of some of the student  is Js3.
The training is expected to take place around November depending on the time table of the student.(The specific date will be communicated to CTA).
I will need the assistance of one person as a co- facilitator considering the number i have to handle at once
