oboman: Zero tolerance on phone is classes or during lectures, I accept, but to completely ban the use of phones inside the university is too draconian and ill-thought of. Upon the banned phones, CU still won most ICT Driven University in West Africa for many years in a row. http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/News/Covenant-University-Consolidates-ICT-With-e-Learning-Platform#.U-afQPldUX0 Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor A.A.Atayero making his remarks at the programme. Three years after emerging as the Best ICT driven University in West Africa, Covenant University within her 11 years of existence has adopted one of the defining teaching platforms in the world that gives faculty and students of the University access to academic tools and resources anytime and anywhere. Between 2008 and 2012, the University’s e-learning platform was on the test run phase, basically devoted for periodic course continuous assessment and professional certification examination that the University was conducting, but it has evolved over the past one year into a platform that every member of the University, particularly the academic section of the community have come to embrace. The last year has seen a revolutionized learning and teaching environment in Covenant University, since the adoption of the Moodle teaching platform, otherwise known as Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). The Moodle system of learning and lecture delivery has been roundly embraced with over 450,500 activities, with a projection that by the commencement of the Omega and Summer Semesters of the current academic session, the Virtual Learning Environment of the University would have attracted as much as 2.5 million activities. Today, students of the University can all go online to receive lecture notes, do assignment and quiz in the form of tutorials, especially when reviewing topics. They are now enjoying greater dimension of engagement with their lecturers. The lecturers in turn are using forums platform to communicate with their students. Covenant University has been steadfastly committed to driving educational excellence via the deployment of Information and Communication Technologies in advancing quality delivery of education. The current Management of the University has shown enormous commitment to the usage of e-learning in the quest of the University fulfilling her Vision 10:2022, which is to become one of the ten leading world-class universities in the next ten years. The University has also started the process of developing Covenant University Open Course Ware (CUOCW). The development of the CUOCW began with lecture notes being uploaded, the advancement and improvement in standardizing teaching format and delivery system, as well as having access to a broadcast YouTube channel. When all these elements are synchronized, lectures would be captured and attached to teaching materials that was made use of during the specific class. This is also preparing her capabilities for distant learning, which is the direction of the future of modern day education. Covenant University is already preparing for this in view of her march to becoming a global relevant brand name in the dispensing of quality education. The Management of the University looks forward to attracting students across the world to learn and grow in knowledge through this e-learning platform. The target of the University is to have a functional and quality Course Ware running in the shortest possible time in key areas of learning and subsequent update as other courses delivery are standardized and uploaded. The University, which has won numerous ICT related awards, is raising the stakes in education delivery system, by displaying through the Virtual Learning Environment the quality of contents and relevance of teaching materials the students are exposed to. The new teaching platform would be of enormous benefits to parents and guardians, in the sense that they are able to see, track and evaluate what their wards are being taught in school. Furthermore, the parents could also ask questions and get clarification on courses from time to time. All they have to do is goggle ‘learn.covenantuniversity.edu.ng’, input the course code and access the course material. 1 Like |

Ayo making his remarks at the meeting For the second time running, First Class graduates of Covenant University have emerged tops in the Presidential Special Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development (PRESSID) with 19 out of 200 candidates. This was revealed by the Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission (NUC), Professor Julius Okojie OON, on Thursday, January 9, 2014 and contained in the Commission’s Monday Memo of January 13, 2014. Professor Okojie was quoted as saying that the outcome of the aptitude test for First Class graduates of Nigerian universities for sponsorship to 25 top universities in the world, under the Presidential Special Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development (PRESSID), which was in its second phase, showed that Covenant University, Ota emerged as overall best with 19, out of the 200, that would benefit in the current year. He noted further that this feat, which Covenant University also achieved in the maiden edition of the scheme, meant that the University was moving on the fast lane in the production of quality graduates in the Nigerian University System (NUS) and attributed this to the University’s programmes being target-driven and the extensive use of ICT in the teaching and learning process. The Executive Secretary advised that the Federal Government should consider giving corresponding conditions and expectations to derive from the universities any time funds were released to them, as is the norm in other societies. It will be recalled that Covenant University’s First Class graduates came tops at the maiden edition of the scheme, producing 10 out of the 101 candidates that were selected in the final aptitude test for PRESSID. In his response to the cheering news, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Charles Ayo, said the feat was a validation of the University’s efforts in producing qualitative graduates for the global community. He reiterated the University’s confidence in the quality of its First Class degree graduates, being absolutely sure of their worth and pedigree. He appreciated God for always confirming His vision with infallible proofs and expressed optimism that the University would in no distance future be ranked among the top ten universities in the world, in fulfillment of the prophesy that has gone before it . 2 Likes |

You were making a point that CU is not ICT driven in the technology age. That was the summary of the three bullets you highlighted.

This is how they cope... winning awards. I did not use phones for 5 years in school and I am coping well and greatly, three years after graduation. http://www.virgin.com/entrepreneur/richard-branson-walks-in-enterprise-challenge-winners-shoes Are these young entrepreneurs stars in the making – rich in talent and ripe with innovation? After meeting them, Richard Branson thinks so. Held online, the Enterprise Challenge encouraged young Nigerian entrepreneurs to showcase their business ideas in an Apprentice-style competition. Made up of three rounds, candidates wrote an essay on their entrepreneurial journeys, created a video pitch for their businesses or business plans, and had their ideas judged by a panel of experts in Nigeria and the UK. Richard Branson with the Challenge winners Eseoghene Ise Odiete and Nasir Abdulqadir Yammama were chosen as the Challenge winners from a pool of more than 1000 entrants. Eseoghene (Ese for short) runs Hesey Designs – an online store selling African-inspired accessories – through which she empowers and mentors young African women. Nasir Abdulqadir Yammama won over the judges with his business plan for a mobile phone app called Verdant, which aims to help crop farmers. Both winners were awarded a £5000 grant and a scholarship to the Branson Centre for Entrepreneurship in South Africa. To top it off, they also received a mentoring session with Richard Branson, where they were able to ask questions about his life and business experiences. The Virgin Founder was impressed with results of the competition and by the winners: “Innovation has been an important part of Virgin's heritage and I was pleased to see so many young Nigerians keen to embrace new ideas through the competition. Many congratulations to Ese and Nasir who had fantastic business plans and I’m sure will have very bright futures.” Richard in Ese's custom-made shoes Richard and Ese on stage Ese designed a pair of sneakers – made out of local Nigerian fabric called ‘Ankara’ – especially for Richard Branson, which he wore, complementing a bespoke Vivienne Westwood suit, to the launch of Virgin Atlantic’s new uniform. Standing on stage at the party, he introduced Ese to the fashion-forward crowd and heralded her as a possible Vivienne Westwood of the future. 1 Like

But the last thing any one needs now is to have to read your boring epistles of retrogressive achievements you post on behalf of CU...... One thing i know for sure is those CU graduates ,come 10yrs from now wont be able to stand other graduates from government owned universities not academically per se,but in terms of the survival instincts installed in them while schooling in a highly diversified and distracting environment and still managed to excel. I even doubt if any graduate of CU would be useful in the future development of nigeria bcoz to me they are just bunch of brainwashed zombies like you also....the so called western world that are technologically advanced and scientifically more advanced than Africa and our dear Nigeria,have more than enough distractions in there college of learning,this never weakened them in anyway bur rather brought about the survival instincts needed to thrive in the realistic world.....until the a whole graduates of CU can boast of positive and telling impacts to the nigerian economy,then to me all you gain from CU is just mere paper certification that clears you to be a graduate . 1 Like |

whywhyyyy: And does that stop those graduates of foreign universities with enough phones and super hi-tec gadgets while in school from bossing those CU zombie graduates of urs?......... The summary is if CU likes they should not only ban phones but also seperate class rooms where boys and girls would have lectures,those foreign graduates that where nurtured with technological gadgets that seem to distract would still excel far better than your CU graduates because they have a mind of there own and have structured there lives to the best possible standard that can allow them make groundbreaking decisions unlike your CU students that need dr bishop david oyedepo to come think for them even after years of graduating from the school,the thing is as much as man's environment influences him,it is up to him to choose either to be good or bad,either to go d positive path or the negative path,so i would advise you keep those outdated and retrogressive links or proofs to your self and use it as an esteem booster for your socially deprived and introvertial life.... And please start thinking out of the box instead of expecting dr.david oyedepo to do your thinkin for you. |
