SUMMER E-SCHOOL 2011: DAY ONE

The Summer School E-2011  started  this Wednesday, September 7th at the University of the Atlantic.First of its kind, the E-Summer School has created considerable enthusiasm which shows the desire of young people  to learn more about ICT. The theme of this first edition, which we hope will be followed by several others, is: In the world of open source.After several speeches, the tone was given with Mr. Cyriac Gogbou conference on: « The web 2.0 at the service of solidarity »

At then end of a short break, the participants met in workshops to exchange and get to know each other better around three themes: Contributing to Wikipedia (presented by Samuel Guebo) Creating a Web radio or a Web TV (presented by  Israel Yoroba) Introduction to Blogging (presented by Yehni Djidj).The experience was nice and friendly and I do not regret having agreed  to act as a Speaker a this Event. The discussions were very informative for me and so I suppose, for the others. Let's go crazy, maybe Yehni Djidji will finally get on Twitter! Lol!The atmosphere was good. The magic of facebook helping, contact was so easy and I found myself sharing with people I had never seen, as if we were old friends.Some contacts exchanged, a lot of pictures taken and some crazy laughter later, we parted with a pinch in the heart, all very determined  to see each other on Day 2.Thank you to Gogbou Cyriac, Sylvanus Diogo, Arthur, Nabil, Zoungrana, Jacques Kouame Apkegni, Diomandé, Denoël, Marc Antoine, Moses, Hadassah, Nadège and all those who by their intervention helped make the workshop on introduction to Blogging, a success.You can view the blog of  Zoungrana, one of the participant at this adress: http://goodmanalidou.unblog.fr/

 I hope others will join the dance soon! Do not forget your home exercises.
