Intel supports Vodacom ICT Centres

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><i><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Submitted by Omashani Naidoo of SchoolNet</span></i><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Intel continues to support Vodacom Foundation and Department of Basic Education in the ICT centres in the proof of concept districts. Two Intel Getting Started training of trainer workshops were held in the Free State and North West provinces.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Free State - Thaba Nchu</span><o:p></o:p></span></b></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The training took place on 7 – 8 September 2013. SchoolNet’s trainer, Mr Daniel Maedi found the laptops were connected and ready for training. Of the expected 22 educators only 12 educators attended but these were mostly CAT educators at their respective schools hence their computer skills were advanced. The trainer went through all the modules and managed to demonstrate how to use the tip-sheets and help-guide. These participants used the help-guide as directed and they had no problems in navigating the CD. The handbook was also saved in personalized folders.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div><h5></h5><div style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjigi0-hw8klDf6-kuAccZWIvF0n-5zKJCe4rrujxG37KwKpzyaCyW7k3eoxbgWyfS3YlJVYVfczHL6l89KMeHCxt1b3wxKMHtSJrdidzpE9ZpijjzVrnGONDy8a9AUdD3K3zr4Ik33Q_s/s1600-h/clip_image002%25255B3%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><img alt="clip_image002" border="0" height="301" hspace="12" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFIDGHqsaLQZf7LUJ6Vfs5RJmgoFLyY2HPOd33lAuEx1qZsSqgFCSbTTUTxsf5pG5-Gc7puFLIjqL920qRZr2LG4AS5RDqiDwyA-hjvhpFqM9OVMISGdcAnWYS6B5bJBlSI7mABHIlpS8/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="clip_image002" width="400" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Trainees looked at the 21^st century approach. They did an exercise where they compared the old way of teaching and the modern way of teaching. The activities were also discussed and some were able to finish them at home. The module of computer basics was not important for this group but it was discussed because they are going to be trainers. The collaboration in the 21^st century skills was discussed in detail and the module was followed step by step and participants got very involved in an exercise.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The module on Discovering and Exploring MS Word took longer than expected and the emphasis was put on following steps to make educators independent and able to look for answers themselves. The trainer explained that all modules follow the same style. Following the module outline educators were asked to complete this section on their own. The trainer created a folder for the Motheo Training and sent the link to participants. The aim was to check if they are able to access email and use it confidentially. Trainees were successful with this task.<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigfiP9ud_2Xu9p_TFjepL3qAkOhEk4zUfqY4aeRmWMhS1-QBdiye8dzVzUzMlLIWJ-vDpK39fNDtZevDQ7u4C3ydbfxckCYQWW_0pjr2ter3OKmUkMWW7wv5SASPmjI_ZQexgis4OWiPo/s1600-h/clip_image004%25255B3%25255D.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="clip_image004" border="0" height="173" hspace="12" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnpA6CwsvLROYRdLdgEdDnny-JUTaGt82h0bAE44fXpGr8XdPH1n20zWeKgAG_CYwj13nTfxtkU7b9U-RENNi8FOvTYWxUqmkm6DwxEum53uNJe2o02unj_NxDUQgYyK_pdRUDLLsVPo0/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="clip_image004" width="229" /></a><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The module on multimedia and spreadsheets were facilitated and progressed very successfully. The trainer further requested them to do two or three more elective tasks on the multimedia module and to prepare one task for showcase. Before the showcase educators got engaged in a pair and share activity and become more critical friends. The pair and share session as well as showcase enabled the master trainer to see the confidence level of the educators and how good they are at expressing themselves. These new trainers will now be able to facilitate this course for other teachers in their clusters.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="" name="_Toc369873438"></a></span><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">NorthWest – Ganyesa</span><o:p></o:p></span></b></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeiJi33Yt9Ft6xyU2cTA76xYoSUolaZocOakdZq9gYRKW2NM9yFt3tL9SehU1FQsPiU8iZQ_ksvCH-L0XQ3BG1FInJL7HF60vC8qjXrvShVwUfpGr-IeDeR5m4gTFK2LeJetNGfYGpJfU/s1600-h/clip_image006%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="clip_image006" border="0" height="145" hspace="12" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCXChE1Y2peIqxgMyaoEOVAXshXBfcfEz80mig-PzW2UbIvyHVS4gysVfB7InU29dRMA67e5M-r7VWXoRe80KSPxCnY86pM5GaFPAaLUsUC1hitvzAFXWqfqwYDSEEJ-ffDbNyWGfsOYQ/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="clip_image006" width="200" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK0OGbdAB-CIjDPrsyDkWEtDgEwVKrL8FKfJ54X-LEzL9zw-VoT7v1VrAFLEhs-_jjNicI9rfBp_w9I7hgHui0VkGXs-iOqwzzM5UQPByg6odh8ooMxsd87cosLlx3KqCoJ5-BB9KGP48/s1600-h/clip_image008%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="clip_image008" border="0" height="152" hspace="12" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNfa9xjO4xt6BDo-YFMJRFiwmJDesddOchj6NlmS-Z-gLcmUUaUBI9yaYRjbUNizETr8tdzVyVovYoogHdRrpFIAHjT4bKrToF45opZb1q1Yhc3Ua2AcwJNC4vmcwXcts7l51Rk9iKclc/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="clip_image008" width="201" /></a></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Sixteen participants attended this Intel Getting Started training of trainers’ course. Facilitator Saul Pila noted that all 23 computers are functional but that the internet was not working. While participants were cooperative some of them were not active and did not like to interact with other educators. On a second day participants came early but the positive spirit was spoiled by the lack of internet. Participants showcased their work briefly. The teachers were responding to the following questions, “What have you done with Word Processor?; How can you use that in the classroom?; What new skills have you learned?; and what were your challenges and how did you overcome them?”. Most of them came out with flying colours.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />On Day 3 the teachers used the Help guide to assist themselves.<b> </b>Trainees were working independently and requested that we go on for another day to complete all the activities.

Washington, DC, cab drivers forming association with Teamsters

The Teamsters are using a new approach to give taxicab drivers a voice on the job: They're forming an association with independent drivers in Washington, D.C. A <a href="http://www.teamsters117.org/index.cfm?zone=/unionactive/view_article.cfm&HomeID=272929" rel="nofollow">Teamster taxi driver association in Washington state </a> that formed recently is working well.<br /><br />The new methods and structures used by organized labor have a new name: <a href="http://prospect.org/article/alt-labor" rel="nofollow">alt-labor</a>. When <a href="http://teamsternation.blogspot.com/2013/05/low-wage-strikes-starting-to-yield.html" rel="nofollow">unions help improve conditions for low-wage workers</a> through sudden one-day strikes at retail stores, fast-food restaurants, warehouses and the <a href="http://teamsternation.blogspot.com/2013/08/LA-port-drivers-strike-electrifies-workers.html" rel="nofollow">ports</a>, that's alt-labor.<br /><br />Today, the <a href="http://www.teamster.org/content/washington-taxi-drivers-form-association-teamsters-union" rel="nofollow">Teamsters announced</a> the formation of the Washington, D.C., Taxi Operators Association. Here's what the press statement said:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">Cab drivers in the nation’s capital are joining together with the Teamsters Union to announce the formation of the new Washington, D.C. Taxi Operators Association. </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">The association is being created to give the more than 6,000 taxi cab drivers in Washington, who are independent owner- or lease-operators, a united, collective voice for positive change in their industry. The association will be affiliated with Teamsters Local 922 in Washington. The first meeting will be held Oct. 29. </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">“For far too long, taxi drivers in Washington, D.C., have not had a strong voice to provide input about regulations and policies that affect their livelihoods,” said Ferline Buie, President of Teamsters Local 922. “Their new association with Teamsters Local 922 will give them the strong voice they need and deserve.” </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">The drivers approached the Teamsters because they need to have input on regulations before they take effect. They want a stronger voice and more representation on the D.C. Taxi Cab Commission. </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">“This is about fairness for more than 6,000 drivers and their families, and it’s about improving the taxi cab service in our nation’s capital,” said Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa. </blockquote>You can follow what they're doing on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dcteamstertaxi" rel="nofollow">Washington DC Taxi Cab Association Facebook</a> page.

Five American Idols in the Top 200 but only one new one in the Top 100 Albums

Up until the release of Mandisa's "Overcomer" at least one from the duo of Carrie Underwood and Phillip Phillips have been in the Top 100, and on the first week they both fell out of the top 100, "Overcomer" was still at #92 to represent the Idols. However, <a href="http://www.mjsbigblog.com/billboard-chart-date-110213.htm" target="_blank">this week on the album chart</a> with Carrie's "Blown Away" at #158 and Phillip's "The World From the Side of the Moon" at #142, "Overcomer" has stayed steady at #111 on its eighth week (from #112 last week), so the lone Idol in the Top 100 is the brand new one, Scotty McCreery's "See You Tonight" at #6 (#1 Country) with sales of 52,000. Scotty's debut sales are the best Idol album sales since Fantasia's release of "Side Effects of You" back in May (where she sold 91K first week and landed at #2).<br /><br />I am certain Scotty's album will stay in the Top 100 for several weeks, and when Kelly Clarkson's "Wrapped in Red" album is released next week he will have more American Idol company at the top of the charts, followed by Kellie Pickler and Daughtry's releases in November ("The Woman I Am" on Nov 11 and "Baptized" on Nov 19). Phillip even has his live EP released on the Nov 19 so he should see another jump in sales too. There should be American Idols everywhere on the charts this holiday season.<br /><br />Another interesting thing I noticed before watching the Cardinals sloppily lose to the Red Sox last night, was that Mary J. Blige sang the National Anthem. Why is that noteworthy on an American Idol blog? Well, last year it was <a href="http://www.mjsbigblog.com/phillip-phillips-national-anthem-game-1-world-series-2012-video.htm" target="_blank">Phillip Phillips</a> and the year before then it was <a href="http://www.mjsbigblog.com/scotty-mccreery-sings-the-national-anthem-at-world-series-game-1.htm" target="_blank">Scotty McCreery</a> who sang the anthem at Game 1. Was Mary J. Blige the stand in for Candice Glover since "Music Speaks" was never released earlier this month? I suppose Candice did sing it at the <a href="http://www.mjsbigblog.com/candice-glover-national-anthem-mlb-all-star-game-2013-video.htm" target="_blank">MLB All Star game</a> in July, but that is not the same size audience as the World Series.

Fitness Health Benefit

<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Genie Wallace</div><br /><br /> <div class='uawarticle'>It is regrettable that many people find themselves overweight and out of shape. Modern lifestyles factors, which include processed foods diets, sedentary office work environments and the various media outlets, have caused a good portion to ignore or forget the effect these have on their health. Working out can help you drop some weight, lower cholesterol levels, improve stamina and build immunity. An exercise machine, like a home treadmill trainer, can make it easy to incorporate regular fitness and exercise activities into your busy routine.<br /> <br /> Benefits of Having a Treadmill<br /> <br /> Treadmills are used to walk, jog and run on. Some people use them to condition their bodies, such as to lose weight. Others use them to train on, most often for races and marathons. Treadmills offer more opportunities for engaging in intensive cardio workouts than other gym fitness units. There are various treadmill workout apps to lose weight, build muscle or simply improve stamina. Treadmills are great fitness machines because they can be used in so many different ways. Athletes use them to train on, casual users use them to stay fit, and overweight people use them to lose weight.<br /> <br /> Standard Treadmill Features<br /> <br /> Speed adjustment is a basic and important feature on treadmills. Incline adjustment capability is another commonly found feature in treadmills, and it allows you to lift the tread belt to different heights. The purpose of these options is intended to help make doing exercises fun and different. You'll have the ability to personalize your workouts so that you're always interested and engaged.<br /> <br /> Modern treadmills have many inbuilt workout programs. These programs include workouts designed for targeted fitness goals such as weight loss and training. Just select the app before you begin and follow the treadmill's instructions. As the workout program advances, you'll note that the speed and incline of the tread belt running change. The pace and the resistance levels will vary, so go with a program that you know you'll be comfortable with.<br /> <br /> Some treadmill programs work to exercise your heart. A heart rate sensor assists in these types of workouts. Most heart rate monitors are either clipped to the body somewhere or held in the hand. More expensive treadmill trainer models utilize a chest-strap heart rate monitor, which many say is more accurate when it comes to monitoring your heart rate and calories burned. A treadmill trainer can have several different monitors, in addition to a heart rate monitor. These monitors help you monitor various fitness levels as you workout.<br /> <br /> Something you might be surprised to know is that treadmills usually have customization settings. Built-in system memory can enable you to retain personalized workout analytics or programs. The capability to remember customized workouts is most helpful when there are multiple users of the treadmill machine. Select treadmills have the ability to store workout history. If you're interested in documenting and referencing previous workout sessions so that you can keep track of fitness progress made, choose one of these.<br /> <br /> iFit Live technology is a advanced treadmill feature that gives you hundreds of virtual courses reproducing those at the live destinations. For example, athletes can train from home for a marathon being held in another city. See how well you compare against others on certain race courses with iFit Compete Live. Any treadmill machine that has Internet connectivity and is compatible with the iFit Live technology can run this multipurpose feature. Advanced treadmills also have full-color LCD touch screens and a music player to keep your rhythm going when you exercise.<br /> <br /> Parts of a Treadmill<br /> <br /> A treadmill trainer consists of a wide conveyor belt controlled by an electric motor or flywheel of varying power. The belt moves over rollers, which accommodate to whatever speed setting you've fixed in the treadmill's electronics. The running deck fits with the treadmill machine belt and rollers to support and move you through. Select treadmills have running decks that can be elevated, providing different inclines to work out on. Mix up your exercises and never be bored with another workout session.<br /> <br /> Almost all running decks are mounted on damping materials to make the treadmill trainer shock-absorbent. Decks are furnished with a cushioned belt to lessen impact on the feet, but usually the level of cushioning can be adjusted. The components just described all work in conjunction in giving you varying workout experiences.<br /> <br /> Yet another good thing to note about a treadmill's design: some have foldable decks and others have non-foldable decks. The foldable variety be more effective for home gyms where space is limited. The running deck can be folded up to meet the treadmill machine arms. Foldable treadmills tend to cost more than non-foldable ones. You'll find that non-foldable treadmills are more commonplace as they are less costly and more long-lasting in construction.<br /> <br /> Assortment of Treadmill Systems<br /> <br /> It's important to look at a treadmill's feature set, but take note to the treadmill's design and intended user type. A treadmill machine engineered only for walking will cost less than a jogger's treadmill; a running treadmill trainer will be the most expensive. More body weight causes more impact and wear on the treadmill trainer; it needs a more robust motor to support heavy users and thus comes at a higher price. Taller users need a treadmill with a longer tread belt that can easily accommodate their long strides. The more often a treadmill machine is used, the more important it is to get a reliable and durable machine. Any workout system you get is an investment into your health. Take some time to do your research and read some <a href="http://www.fitnessexercise.mynetworksolutions.com/">exercise treadmill reviews</a> and see what people are raving about.<br /> <br /> Take Away<br /> <br /> There are various techniques that exercising helps improve your health and your fitness. A fitness treadmill at home can help you attain these benefits. Take some time to think about what your health and fitness needs are. Also, measure the space available at home to place the treadmill and think about the type of users and designed usage. Be sure you take into account the prices of different treadmill trainer models. You can get carried away and pick something that's beyond your price range.<br /> <br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawresource'><br /> <div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawlinks'><a href="http://workoutwarrior.hpage.com/">Treadmill review sites</a> are useful places to get more details.

What to Make of "What Starbucks Gets that Architects Don’t"

This week architects have been busy <a href="http://www.archdaily.com/440358/why-i-left-the-architecture-profession/">reading</a> and <a href="http://archinect.com/news/article/84452042/what-starbucks-gets-that-architects-don-t">commenting on</a> Christine Outram's <a href="https://medium.com/what-i-learned-building/a844ec3343da">essay at Medium</a>, "What Starbucks Gets that Architects Don't: Or why I left the architecture profession." On my first read a couple days ago I got the message (architects need to listen to the people who occupy their buildings) and agreed generally that buildings and spaces could be designed better, although I detested the way it was written and didn't find that round tables at Starbucks to be a strong argument for architects talking to and listening to people. <br /><br /><a href="https://medium.com/what-i-learned-building/a844ec3343da"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvjFcgEgwFj7kJC9YIzxyMRIqq6IN2Vz1RLqbY0lMg8ZL9zOC-RtJx_EJCkaYQ55b-SSozEvZksbFHFQs2WE6Q6RFbYUccWLaIsXcuqstJQdqTgxhZ9PayVjsfc64C8NLp1o8jjQ3FgXAE/s1600/Starbucks-Medium.jpg" /></a><br /><br />To make just one comment on her article in this blog post, it's worth focusing on what I think is the gist of her argument:<br /><blockquote>"You [architects] don’t understand people. I correct myself. You don’t listen to people."</blockquote>These sentences come right at the beginning of her piece, setting up her argument about Starbucks ("Form follows feeling") and using the Internet to poll people about things like where a new shop should really be located (something usually outside an architect's scope). But what if her statements are incorrect? I correct myself. What if there is a more accurate criticism about architects?:<br /><blockquote><i>You [architects] are people, but you don't listen to yourselves, to what's inside.</i></blockquote>This statement may sound a bit goody-goody or mushy at first, but my point is that by focusing on users as a distinct group of people—them, not us—former-architect Outram is perpetuating the gulf between the two. Actually, I'd argue that architects are also Starbucks customers (and homeowners, and students, and the other people that use buildings), and given their education and practical experience they are in a unique position to gauge how design can make one's cup of coffee in a chain cafe a better experience, to use her example.<br /><br />Is it necessary to poll hundreds of coffee drinkers to determine that round tables "protect self-esteem for those...flying solo"? Or could an architect have come to the same determination by believing their impression that round tables work better in some environments than square tables, be it by observing patrons at a local cafe or in a public park, or by choosing a round table over a square one themselves? Any architect will admit that all of their observations and experiences influence how they think about architecture, so I'm wont to believe the latter.<br /><br />So then why don't architects listen to what's inside? The obvious conclusion would be to blame clients—after all, they are the entities that sit in that supposed gulf between architects and users. Yet the case of Starbucks shows (if anything) that clients are open to design solutions when they lead to benefits both for them and whom they serve; and to make a fairly safe assumption, a developer should be open to design solutions that make residents happier so they can ask for higher rents or selling prices.<br /><br />But traditionally the client's bottom line has driven decision-making, therefore conditioning architects to prioritize that over human needs. Therefore I'd wager that architects don't listen to what's inside because they're afraid of ignoring what they see as the client's wishes or of even losing the job. Yet ultimately the architect exists to balance human needs (the users, as filtered through the architect's own experiences and expertise) with those of the client, as well as with the environment and other considerations that are greater than both.<br /><br />So I believe that architects <i>do</i> listen to people, internalizing conversations and experiences so as to make better decisions about design. Often they don't follow through on those feelings and therein lies some of what Outram is getting at. I don't believe architects need to carry out online polls or data mine (what people in advertising, Outram's current gig, do) to create buildings and spaces that are in line with how people want to feel. Architects can interpret such data if it exists, but not at the expense of understanding themselves and the shared human condition.
