Reforming Education - Designing a Classroom aligned with Social Media Technologies and Social Groups to Change the Learning Paradigm


While Colleges and Universities have a key role in promoting high quality and reliable education and the development of knowledge, with the fast growing technology, media and information systems, it is obviously becoming very difficult to cope with the needs of today’s students by confining education only in educational institutions. Being overwhelmed by the information created by virtual communities, a number of students are losing interest to learn in colleges. This is a good signal to educators for the need to extend their classrooms not only beyond the four walls but also beyond the campus compound.
 The loss of students’ interest in colleges is becoming a global issue. For instance it’s been widely reported that America is facing an education crisis. Funding cuts, overcrowded classrooms and a shortage of teachers impact this even further. But the main issue is that classrooms are not social in nature.
To positively affect education and learning, educators and administrators are using social in many forms. Lesson plans and projects that worked 30 years ago are being rethought, taking into account a different and more connected audience of students today. Understanding the way digital content can help students in the classroom, and how students are using it to learn, is at the heart of fostering a new style of education.
Eritrea Institute of Technology is extensively working to develop forward-thinking educators by integrating social Media Technologies and Social Groups. Here are few innovative ways our educators need to adopt the power of social to empower students to succeed:

1.   Transform Passive One-Way Teaching to Two-Way Collaboration

Education is more than simply absorbing information. It’s about asking questions, challenging the status quo, and empowering students to make informed decisions and draw conclusions. Social platforms are tools to support the learning ecosystem; it’s a technology that turns a one-way dialogue into multi-point conversations, facilitating actionable collaboration.
As computers and technology have become more and more prevalent, Instructors, has to seek ways to use Social technology to engage and excite their students. Taking the concept of social networking and applying it to an online community for students is one way of creating an academic repository of their online work. Not only is it a place for the teacher to post homework assignments and syllabi, the community becomes a destination for students to share their viewpoints and grow with one another.
MyCampus, a collaborative learning management system in the EIT network is deployed with this in mind. With students knowing how to communicate well and having blogging and writing skills, the teaching-learning process no longer ends at 6 pm; there will be a constant flow of educational communication inside and out of the classroom. The availability of social network technologies and social groups being integrated with the learning platform enable students to stay connected and collaboratively learn from each other. This transforms the one-way teaching to network of collaboration.

2.   Empowering Teachers to Make Curriculum Relevant for Tomorrow

To help students succeed, our curriculum must be relevant for tomorrow. Students need to be prepared for life beyond the academic setting and ready to embrace post-graduate and working lives. To create a curriculum that’s truly forward-looking, teachers need to have the time and space to do research, get inspirations, and share best practices.
One of the biggest benefits of a custom social community is that teachers who share the same passion can easily connect in an open and supportive environment. Conversations and idea sharing extend beyond the boundaries of classroom four walls. At MyCampus we are seeing educators connecting with each other, in turn finding the right recipe for integrating new technologies in classroom teaching. A great example is the use of Forums (discussion topics) with in a particular course and the ability to create social groups that foster institute wide collaboration. Teachers are obliged to work on how this technology can best be used to enrich the lives of students, while preparing them for tomorrow. Teachers do this through the use of Institute wide discussion forums at EitCloud, offering and getting tips and best practices, and detailing implementation plans to centerpiece social classrooms to ready students for success today and in the future.
Education is no longer passive, and that students and teachers alike need to be flexible to relearn, at any time. His community is taking advantage of the opportunity for educators to help out each other by sharing ways to use mobile technology in the classroom to drive student success.

3.   Build a Support and Professional Development System for Teachers

As education reform develops into a twenty-first century curriculum, teachers and school administrators are coming together as members of online communities to nurture a professional support system. By joining the conversation through education-focused EIT communities, teachers are no longer making the education journey solo in other words no learner is an island.
EitCloud-Collaborative Educational Community is one such community, attracting an institute wide teaching-learning audience with global education reform vision. There, educators become part of the digital dialog, enabling them to share and learn in their teaching success with educators from the institute and around the world. Limitless topics can be discussed here, without restrictive control of academic institutions, governing bodies or bureaucracy.
Members of such global communities act as valuable resources to help guide other educators along pathways of successful teaching-learning methodologies. It is all about how cloud is formed in the sky. EitCloud enables teachers, students and other members of the institute the opportunity to be part of the conversation in the virtual classroom.
The Cloud is open. The initiation is passion or we can say interest, interest to share knowledge and collaborate in reforming education. EitCloud socially connect educators, where the bigger is the guider and the small ones are learners and contributors. Educators are people who care about others, getting into education largely because they wanted to make a difference. And for many of them, they had to abandon those passions. They were bound by so many constraints in their lives, that they couldn’t bring themselves to their imagination. So all of a sudden, social media tools provided educators with an outlet for this passion. You contribute to cloud because only you are caring. Social Media and Social group tools help educators to be global publishers and give them a global voice, while supporting to each other.

4.   Give Guidance to Underprivileged Students to Succeed

One purpose of education is to level the playing field, giving all students equal access to learning and content, no matter a student’s background—be it racial, socioeconomic, disability or upbringing. The key is finding a platform that enables educators to help students learn in a dynamic and open environment, and creates opportunities for students to help their peers.
It really needs passion and personal initiative to give students an avenue to find the academic support they need and encourage students to become the first generation in their family to attend college and higher educations. Such individuals or organization uses Social Media technologies to reach wider audiences and connect them in the education perspective. This promotes a college-bound culture and a community lending itself to students seeking higher education opportunities after high school. Role model-college students can spread positive exemplary information along with inspirational activities for underprivileged youths to follow, counterbalancing the many negative influencers they may encounter as they grow up. Through this trusting and well organized social community, children learn how to deal with stress, raise expectations, succeed academically and take control of their destiny.
We can’t deny that there are a number of irrelevant programs which makes use of the power of social media technologies to expand their influences and divert young learners in to undesirable directions. However, educators should not see their hands crossed; instead they need to be creative in designing their classrooms in new and attractive ways by aligning it with social media technologies and empowering it with social groups. This enables them to share their successes with one another and help techno-socio-overwhelmed students return back to academic success opportunities.

To illustrate this with an example: Facebook and Google plus have now become globally recognized social network platforms, as a result millions of students are registered to the systems (especially facebook) and use them in their daily life socio-interaction. Educational institutions cannot deny this; instead they should plan on how to make use of these powerful social platforms to achieve their goals. Of course the goal of educational centers is to build confident and globally competitive graduates who make a difference in their prospective working areas in the long run.
Working in community practices powered by social media tools for a common purpose (in our case Education) is more than just publishing educational content or best practices – it forges relationships and opens the door to worldwide education success.
To sum up, in the classroom surrounded by social media technologies and empowered by social groups, education is being reinvented to take advantage of new technologies, online mediums and web applications. For many educators, it takes their own initiative to get the ball rolling – and at EitCloud, we give full support and follow up to the educators who have already begun redefining the ways students learn and succeed. We also look forward to supporting many more teachers, students and social media enriched classrooms as these practices are practices which reflect the 21st century skills and real world environment for now and the future. Design your own classroom that changes the learning paradigm to meet the needs of our digital natives.

The Business Value Of Virtualization

A commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of
VMware.


In May 2009, VMware commissioned Forrester Consulting to evaluate the business value of x86
server virtualization. In particular, Forrester interviewed individuals responsible for the IT
infrastructure architecture, including VP and C-level individuals, at 29 large enterprises about why
their company invested in virtualization and the specific ways it has improved IT efficiency or
flexibility. In particular, they asked executives to rate the benefits received from consolidating servers, performing business continuity/disaster recovery, reclaiming data center capacity, and executing similar initiatives.

Key Findings

Based on our executive interviews, Forrester found that server virtualization technologies have
delivered benefits that executives could clearly explain. Overall, Forrester found that:
  •  IT becomes more efficient. Beyond just hardware savings from consolidation,
virtualization optimizes infrastructure costs and increases operational efficiency. Plus, firms
were able to reclaim capacity (space, power, and cooling) in their data centers, postponing
costly expansion plans.
  •  Time-to-market is faster. Virtualization speeds server and application deployment, makes
configurations more consistent, and simplifies the staging of applications across test and
development.
  • IT services are more predictable. There will always be failures and downtime, but
virtualization makes recovery from these faster, easier, and lower cost.
  •  Companies leave savings on the table. Overall, our study respondents virtualized
between 10% and 30% of their physical servers and are happy with the results. Despite
having achieved rapid return on investment through hardware savings, firms appear to slow
down after their initial successes, with many planning to virtualize just 50% of their systems.
Upfront planning can result in increased long-term savings.

Switching to Learning Mode

The law of life is the law of growth; all nature testifies to the operation of this law by silently, constantly expressing itself in the law of growth. Where there is growth and expression, there must be life; where there is life there must be harmony, and where there is harmony, there is perfect health. Health of the Mind.
This quote was adopted form www.livethepower.com. Living the power of your subconscious mind definitely requires to pass through certain learning curve. However you have passed through a learning curve does not mean you are educated. There is always a need to Learn, Understand, implement and reflect. Learning and understanding can be taken in one category while implementation and reflection goes in another category. Therefore living the power requires us to switching between two modes. The Learning Mode and the Reflection Mode. If you feel you are short of knowledge or understanding of certain subject switch to learning mode. And if you feel you have good amount of concept or knowledge that is good enough to join the world go to Reflection Mode.

This post is all about switching to Learning mode so that you build up your knowledge, understanding and values...

Cloud Based Education: Presentation by Teachers



Today we had a presentation program by teachers who have attended a workshop about Cloud Based Educational System in a Local School called "Mai-Nefhi Seconday School". The teachers had taken the course under the title 'Designing a 21st Century Classroom' using an advanced E-learning and collaboration system and other educational applications. An open Stage was given to attendants to present their capability on the usage of the new system. Mr. Franco a Mathematics Teacher who was the first presenter in today's Session was one of the teachers who have exploited the functionality of the technology brought to the new Computer laboratory of the School. In his presentation he has shown his well designed online course, which was enriched by visual images that demonstrate 3D graphs,complex Polynomial Function and assessment methods. In his words Mr. Franco:
E-learning system has several advantages. It is the combination of audio, visual education by which the senses gain more information than the traditional teaching method. generally the amount of information taken is higher if it is received simultaneously in two modalities that is vision and hearing rather than in single modality. It can facilitate perception of the most important features with in a short period of Time. which can not be easily explained by theory such us the three dimensional objects, translation of functions and polynomial graphs. It also develop the students interest in the learning process. furthermore learning is enhanced when material is organized.
 The Next Presenter was Mr. Hagos, Physics Teacher in the school presented his online course to the audience. In his presentation, we were able to see and integrated lesson with text, Images and small video clip about Refraction of Light. In his understanding about the new system of teaching using the Cloud Based Education, he mentioned that such system will help the teacher to reflect his lessons to the students with equal opportunity and with less effort.

The presentation was impressive. Yet there will be another eight presentation sessions. This is a big transition to see teacher move from the traditional way of teaching to the modern 21st century model of education in short period of time.
EriCloud Educational will prepare a case study in such migration soon.

Taking a Positive Action

By Following nicely outlined principles of success, anybody could lead an interesting life. Whether once goal is to achieve small things or universal wonder, there is a general truth that we need to have definite outcome at the end of our effort. We need to be sure that we clearly know where we are heading. Having a clear vision of our destination, we might feel fully satisfied. However, there is another very important point that we have to consider, that is taking a positive action that leads us to the desired outcome.

Before five months you might have planed to complete that nice Inspiring Book and release it in four months to the community as a big gift to really change lives of a number of people. Probably you might have clearly specified the day of the release of the book will be in September 17 2011. As the day approaches sure enough there is a bad feeling in you, which sounds like "You Didn't do that!" where is that book? and so on. And right in this day I would have seen your mouth zipped, your head down and your whole body tight all because you were not successful. What do you think the problem is?


I would like to mention too, that you have measured your outcome in terms of time, energy, and related resources in case your answer to the above question is one of these resources. Taking a positive action in the right time is a key to most of the hindrance you might get in the way to your clearly outlined outcome.


In this context I am assuming that your intended outcome is save to you, to others and to the universe in general. If so taking the right action is always the right way to your goal. This is because always our outcomes at the end of the day are the commutative sum of the successive actions we take in the course of the process to the the desired result.


Whether it is in education, relation, career, recognition or whatever there are five principle of success you would apply. but the second one outweigh the others in being the critical and the most important bridge to success (Take a Positive action). The five principles are:
1. Know your Outcomes
2. Take Positive Action
3. Have Enough sensory awareness to know if you are being effective (that is if the series of actions are right)
4. Have behavioral flexibility
5. Operate from a physiology and a psychology of excellence

With these principles you can reach to your success, remember and focus on No. 2.
+Action, +Action ... Success!


September 17 For me and for life!

pdftotext: Linux / UNIX Convert a PDF File To Text Format

While developing EriCloud Educational, particularly the E-Learning system I found out the system requires PDF files to be converted to text. I was not able to get a suitable package to do it.
It was just before I was to quite it that I have found this.

Pdftotext is installed part of a package or utility called as poppler-utils. so to install pdftotext in a linux system in my case ubuntu just run this command and you are done.

$Sudo apt-get install poppler-utils.

To use the utility:
$sudo pdftotext {PDF-file} {text-file}

that is it

The Power of Waiting

Today I have intentionally visited my blog just to publish this post 'The Power of Waiting'. Although the core reason that made me eager to post this was a personal case, finally I decided to make it a global one. Have you ever waited for something to happen or someone to come for a long long time? Have you ever felt a special feeling in such occasions where your expectations grow from time to time. Have you ever waited in Green Lovely Garden for someone to come and looked here and there in all direction only to find out it was a killer expectation? Was there any time you expected more than anything that there to come a reply message right in your e-mail in-box or new instant messages. Have you ever waited for a public transport until you feel something deep inside your heart? Waiting, waiting ....or great expectation ...? How is the power of waiting? Expectation? in your own feeling.



Consider the farmer who has just ploughed his land and put his seeds in the ground. Now he is waiting for the rain to come, looking to the sky with great eager. It has been three days since the seed was buried and there was no sign of rain at all. And Imagine the farmer is just waiting.

Think of the Mom who has written a long lovely letter to her son, who is very very far away from her site and now she is waiting and waiting until the time she didn't know. Replies and a bit communication is a big relief, but who do that?

Imagine an obedient and trusted girl that has been in love with that awesome boy for about three years and now they are apart for some reason for about five years. If you can imagine the power of waiting, she is still waiting with an absolute trust and honesty. In the contrary we are not sure whether the other side is trapped with the power of waiting or is relieved.



The power of waiting with patience has been a long term irresistible solution of many uncountable challenges through out the world. waiting for peace, justice, love, relief, life, unity, integrity, security. waiting for communication, association, and organization. Waiting for the unknown, property, humanity and prosperity. The list is infinite, but there is one thing in common for all sort of waiting. That is EXPECTATION. Everybody drafts his/her own prose of expectation, draws maps of great expectation on how that a big waiting would happen.

The life of waiting is full of imagination. Activities like outlining, drafting, stroking, drawing, erasing, redrawing, mapping, matching, selecting, dropping, adding all sort of things, ideas, comments, random questions and more. That is the perfect waiting, where outcomes are outlined in advance. But what if you are waiting for the unknown, waiting for the unfair, unbelievable with your hands crossed. That is the damn cheap, the killer in life. Keeping your hands in your pocket, waiting for dreams to come true or expecting the tangled to be solved. This is all killing the perfect life while defining the perfect waiting.



The power of waiting is strong enough to dead-end your life. Hey, stop waiting, input your power of identity to revile a wider world just from the inside of YOU. The Power of Waiting is External and unmanageable, but The Power of identity is internal and it is all about YOU.

Stop waiting and dig in you, drawing the map of expectations and analyzing them with a series of effective strategies.

Cultural Gathering a Life Long Lesson



In Eritrea we have a very attractive monasteries. Some of which have great historical and cultural peculiarity. one of such wondrous places in Eritrea is The Monastery of Sina (Known as Debre Sina) or St. Marry of Debre Sina. During the yearly cultural gathering at the monastery thousands people come from every corner of the nation. They celebrate spiritual and cultural get together.



Last year I visited to the Monastery and I saw every activity is quite impressive and attractive. Especially the love, the respect, the motivation and the desire of every visitor more than anything unique.

The Church of St. Marry is located at a very high rocky mountain, where a number of miraculous things reside. when you see the myriad people right from the mountain all over the rest of the land and in the mountain, you come to think that every Eritrean could be there.

Many personal things happened last year. I remember I dragged myself into a long lasting love, a love of a life. That love is in my heart. Oh! it is hard to say it here , but I have you some wonderful photos.

The Last of May

If life was what we count in days, we would say everybody is living. But the true purpose of a meaning full life is when you a difference everyday. If yesterday was elapsed without your Concern, why can't we say it was a waste.
However, if you have done a bit today and at least a small go from what it was yesterday, we can say you are with those living the life of this day. If possible it a very meaningful to make a difference every second, every minute and every hour which make the day. By this way you come up to the last of a month in this occasion it is the last of May which flips away a month from your life.

Did you make a difference? Was this month a continuation of the previous one or it is Just a GO. Pause, and think before you sleep and rewind the activities you have being doing though out the month, tell to your self whether it was a collection of GOs or a Record of consecutive great deeds.

I have never wished to see a month passed without a point for its remembrance. It there should be a talk, a walk , a communication, a relation or there should be a construction of a bridge for the next day that begins the next month.

Oh! Great here comes a call which bridges this month to the next one in this day. It is a cloud call, a call to widen and boost the cloud and its result. I will be back with updates from the cloud.

From Dream To Reality (from a letter to face-to-face)



It was last year in June, I dare to dream for the impossible to be possible. I wanted to transform an instant sight to lasting memory. I saw a face not a heart in a body. That body looked fine for my eyes ant there was no question of keeping this look and feel in the deep part of my memories. My heart always ponders for this. It was a push to a new world,a world very common but new for me. I was a child in that event in which my heart was not dare enough to start the fight.
But any way I fought and if I am not mistaken I was beaten in the battle. However the good news is that I come out experienced from the struggle, a struggle to see daydreams realized.

Simply I saw a saw seated beside me. It was a new face, attractive and inviting. There I created a short conversation and was able to learn the First Name of that new face. Alas, there was no time, opportunity and condition to continue the killer conversation. Just the first name in my heart, I was separated leaving my heart behind. The next day after a long suffering of the unknown feeling I decided to script a letter addressed to First Name, in a place I guess it could be an address. I wrote every piece the heart was feeling as much as I can do and mailed it enclosed in an envelop addressed prospective address and First Name of that face.

After a time that seemed longer that my age, there was a reply from First name followed by Second name through an instant messenger that triggered my heart to its earliest feelings.

Well, here came a reply which means there is a probability of looking that very face again. I started to send a series of Long Letters (not e-mail as there was no tech to support it) and waited for one day to see that face again. Again came phone calls and sweet voices pronouncing that full name from a location where its body resides.

Waiting for new days to come with new events, I prayed to God things to come true. If it is not again a dream, there came a call today and the sound seems familiar, and there came the Identity
" I am FirstName SecondName Form Address"
"Where are you?" I dropped a Question.
"I am here around there"
"really I am also there." I replied and continued "shall we meet today?" with eager.
Reasons started to flow, this that and this ...
I did not have the patience to wait any more and to see that face again I would not hesitate.
"Hi, we are almost together, I am coming in a minute just wait me there. Today must be the last day I wait."
"Ok that is fine"

Another call "I am already there. Are you coming?"
"Yes, I am coming," I replied and waked forward.

It is almost one year, precisely 11 months. I did not miss that face's look and feel. But now it was slimmer.Is this who have that name?
Yes, Dreams realized and a letter was transformed to face-to-face just today May 24, 2011.

Before I was sure that dream was realized, there came another separation. Time, situation, condition were the criterion.

Waiting for the next day...

Experiencing the 21st Century Model of Education

With the dramatically increasing Technology offerings it natural to see a digital divide among the societies using the Technology Tools. Many schools are in the dreams of using the latest Tech offerings.
With my internal desire to see many schools using the 21st century model of Educational system, I am doing my best to distribute a Cloud Based Educational ICT infrastructure to rural schools. To minimize the digital divide among schools this has lead me to follow a this strategy as soon as possible. What you see below are some pictures I have taken during Cloud based Education training in Ahwat Capuchini Secondary school, one of the first schools to deploy the new Solution.

From The Jail of Love to its Freedom

Education has a lot more things to teach us beyond academics. As a matter of fact most educational centers do not give us the extra lessons that are expected to change the way we live, instead only the arithmetic and theories are delivered. However the social life in education is a rich source of resource to teach us with our notice. A teacher would dictate us a love story, but it is not common for a teacher to give a great lecture on the concepts of love and its behavior. On the other hand social life and the love interaction in the schools teach us a deal of love in reality. ...
