Scrapbook challange #7: Web 2.0 smackdown

I have been thinking of creating a website, I visited Wix.com after seeing an add on YouTube and google site on google drive when I was doing "learning on cloud session " and the experience was interesting.
I did not know about Weebly also  a free website creating site  until I learned it on "digital toolbox" and it draw my attention.

The visit to all these three was to create a free website for an organization and a project I am thinking of "to create an online center for graduate youth to interact and leverage on social capital to increase their employability.

I managed a website from wix.com for Women movement and efforts organization and I had started working for a hub website on google sites and currently Weebly where I am progressing well.

If your thinking of having a website and you do not have money I recommend these free website creating sites. Though you will need to upgrade them for the case of Wix and Weebly to be adds' free but they save the purpose. it is also fun there and there lessons to learn

May be you should try yourself.

Communication fear, Cultural or what?

I was thinking of removing communication skills on my CV, Thanks to this course I am pursuing  Get ready, get set, become a digital online learner .  All these years I thought I have been lying about my skills by including communication as one of them until I realized that I really have it. Communication has changed a bit nowadays as a result of digital disruption that has made the connection very easy and adds an asynchronous aspect, that you do not need to be together or be at the same time zone to communicate.  When I started working my communication experience was quite different from what I expected, I was added to WhatsApp groups, given an email account, phone numbers of my colleagues and told to express anything and that it could be of value to the organization. I thought communication was brought to its simplest level, but it was not the case. I did not know much about an organization and most of the work that we were doing, I was very junior to my colleagues and I

I have followed @julielindsey @kwezilukas @Tanzania youth economic forum @womenmoves on tweeter, facebook and Instagram @world economic forum @kamatafursatz @ecovalleytz @charles stuart uni and @saveelderstanzania, hashtags that I follow are #getreadyDOL #education #enterpreneur what I have found interesting to read was about communication disability, that failure to master some of communication components like fluency and intelligibility makes us disabled. I related this to uncertainty culture where the freedom of expression is highly hindered despite of ones level of civilization or education and fluency. The other interesting thing was about measures of education success and digital technologies to revolutionize the sector whereby as the measures correlates higher level achievement to earnings and integrating social aspects of education equity and social mobility and going further to consider the joy of learning and cognitive pedagogy and leverage on technology to ensure collabor

Learning; Knowing where to find it in your network

Image by  Carwash.com I have gone through a learning experience that almost confused me until I met open learning and come to a conclusion of what learning is to me. I remember my first question on a history session at advanced level, I asked my teacher " you are saying the Buganda Kingdom was the biggest in East Africa but I remember one of the reasons Buganda collaborated with the British colonialist was fear of their enemy camp Bunyoro which was the biggest, so which is which" he replied well and I remember the answer but I had learned about collaboration  at ordinary level, we were not taught about that yet but I saw that relationship with what I already know. When at higher learning I had a tendency of using everything I remember from kindergarten to high school in answering exams, I could answer something that I heard from friends conversation to a story I had from my teachers or in public transport if I see it useful at the moment. I had developed my learning
