Hey seun, This should make front page because we have to enlighten our fellow Nigerians on the important of programming and it has to be done from childhood. If some of us were opportune to learn this as a kid you bet what we would be doing on system.

I'm an alumnus of unilag but I'm really embarrassed seeing this on front page.

Coding isn’t just for computer whizzes, the benefits of teaching kids to code, so they can do more than just “read” new technologies -- but also create them. "Code" has different meanings depending on context. "Scratch" is a much higher level environment than HTML, say, or Java. That means everything. I agree that kids should learn to DESIGN and to BUILD and to IMAGINE, but we have to give them the right building blocks and tools. "Scratch" seems to be a step in that direction. Bravo!

netesy: No scratch is a good language for kids that what my younger ones are learning though.

i agree with you on scratch

We are the Future of Nigerian, pleasure without work means laziness.
As i write, i would show you my pictures and you would know what it takes to be a B.Eng, M.SC and PhD ongoing. i want to start with our youth of nowadays, you think being a tout makes you a big boy or having a couples of girl friends makes you a great man or lets even say your father is wealthy that would make you a wealth man, the answer to all this is NO.

There is nothing I miss more about being on campus (University & primary school) than seeing my friends on a regular basis. I feel like the older I get, and the more involved with my work that I am, the farther and farther the time gaps are between being with my friends and family. The social aspect of being a student is not to be taken for granted. As more and more of us get married and have children, it gets harder to have a social life quite as exciting as the lives we had during school

I'm here today to tell you that going to school/being a student makes you see more to life,makes you comprehend things about we human being and understand the concept of life itself. i start with my self, I started from primary school in Delta state and the name of the school is D.S.C primary school, from there i went to a secondary school known as Challenge Academy school. all these school where located close to my house and i was tired of schooling close to my house because i thought i would be stressed by my parents and again i wanted to see life for myself by leaving the shores of my state then i went to the West to school for my tertiary institution which was Federal University of Technology, Akure. i was always the outgoing type always wanted to be with friend (intellectual friend), I don't take alcohol neither do i smoke or womanize i just enjoy the company of friends especially when they are reasonable. after i graduated i went for my service in Lagos state and after service i went to University of Lagos which is the Nations pride for my Masters programme and now I'm done with my masters programme and i'm trying to write a proposal for my PhD.

Why I'm a telling you this, I'm just telling you that because as far as i have gone i still have time to go out with friends and have trips and fun, but some of you think if you drop out of school its going to be full fun for you but i tell you today that's wrong of you.

sorry i didnt talk about my relationship status while i was in school maybe i would leave that for another day.

please mod, lets be serious here

So nice to see nairaland coming back to the time of where serious people come together to share their thoughts.
Nice of you

so now i should sing a song and come to the front page of nairaland

i need to know how to do this ooo because my girlfriend is not by anyway close to me.

thats good to hear.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2007-07-13-brainstorming.gif

Brainstorming is a group or individual creativity technique by which efforts are made to find a conclusion for a specific problem by gathering a list of ideas spontaneously contributed by its member(s)
Osborn's method:
Osborn claimed that two principles contribute to "ideative efficacy," these being :
1. Defer judgment,
2. Reach for quantity

This method of brainstorming works by the method of association. It may improve collaboration and increase the quantity of ideas, and is designed so that all attendees participate and no ideas are rejected.
The process begins with a well-defined topic. Each participant brainstorms individually, then all the ideas are merged onto one large idea map. During this consolidation phase, participants may discover a common understanding of the issues as they share the meanings behind their ideas.
To me i call it a way of achieving the Eureka effect, also known as the aha! effect.

Let's brainstorm here......

Fash The Gem: lol. Do u mean oh gosh! or my God!

hehehe ajekpako

This is about balance and perspective. Today over 90% of kids with access to technology are literate users whether it be games, surfing or messaging. Probably less than 10% are able to design and create the programmes that deliver those experiences that the 90% enjoy consuming. If in any other industry 10% manufactured and 90% consumed then we would be describing it as an economic disaster. It is this imbalance that we need to address. Not everyone will becoming programming experts, but if some do to fuel the manufacturing skills of the future, our kids lives and our society will be better for it. I bet coding is fun, but there are way too many languages it's not worth learning any of them.

wow... greatest akokite, the nations pride

rhymz: hi everyone,
it has been a while since i commented here. i lost my phone that gave me easy access to the internet than my lappy. Anyway, I notice some of us updating the thread and helping others. I have good news for us all, I have been able to download the PDMS video tutorials full package: it is a four-cd package with step by step video tutorials that covers all aspect of pdms. however, there is a little difficulty, the language used is persian and some of us the textual explanation were not written in english either. but for the better part of the video tutorials, it is demonstrative and easy to follow if you already have average background in PDMS, the size of the whole file is 1.2gb.
At the moment, I am not in Lagos but will be there from the 20th of this month, anyone interested can as usual call me up to get it: for free of course.
Mr Kingsley, thanks for the link, however, you are yet to solve the main problem I complained about the last time: the crack file you said one will have to install with the patch for version sp12.0, the i go like get your dial. eggpet site you gave does not help matters either. is there a way we can meet in portharcourt? i really will like to meet with you. my system recently crashed, and i lost most of my pdms books and the installation from my training centre. as i write, i have downloaded more than two version of pdms yet none of them will work. if it is possible.
and my homey, Adekunle sorry i have been off the radar for a while o, my fone spoil and am back in sokoto.....i shall be active again prolly when i get back to lag.

Hey! How are you faring? Please, how can I get in touch with you. Can I get your email or a contact number to reach you. I would love to have the Pdms

gunpoint: B.eng Mechanical/Production Engineering, Enugu State University of science and technology 2004, Banking till date. As you guessd I'm having the time of my life (not)

Hey! Is the bank stressful? I always run from banking application.

@ecolime; nice hearing your own side! I guess you trying to keep your option open but you can still try going for your Master's while searching for a job.

I opened this thread in order for us to share our thoughts and experiences in school and in our various places of work, and those of us currently seeking a place of work, like me, are not exempted...
First and foremost, I graduated from Federal university of technology,Akure. where i studied Metallurgical and Materials Engineering as my first degree, after which i served my Nation(NYSC) in lagos state. After my service year,i decided to put in for my Master's degree in the University of Lagos, Akoka, in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering and majored in Material science(polymers). Since then I have been keeping my options opened by learning some courses that will improve my academic values and also seeking for a job.

So over to you....

nice one bolt.
For me i graduated from a respected school here in Nigeria after than i went on for my service. after my service<NYSC> i thought i work but when i tried searching for a job it was becoming tedious and unwise for me to just sit at home saying im looking for a job so i decided to go for my Msc.
currently im done with my Msc so im hoping by GOD grace something would come up. im also trying to get my self in some professional courses not to keep me idle.
just watch and pray by GOD grace everything would work out well.

its not easy dating a girl without money.... im talking from experience so i know what im really saying.. anyways you cant tell for another person because it can work for you.

seyibrown: The Judge of the earth will do right by each and every one of us. He sees our hearts. He will judge us all rightly.

i totally agree with you...

chiboy11: @frezie MSC in industrial bhaviour ow do u see dat, re dier much crowd applyin 4it,2ndly do u tink its beta 2go tru PGD , which wil make ur admision more easier,u kno y I ask? In orda skul like uniZik if dier s much crowd dier s dis program u run 4 six months den wen u pas it gives u automatic qualification to run ur masters, does Unilag ve anytin like such prog

@chiboy11 there is no course in UNILAG runned by the school of postgraduate on industrial behaviour except you talking about industrial relations: here is a link to courses in the school
http://spgs.unilag.edu.ng/EntryReqMSc.php
And as you spoke about a programme you run in UNIZIK in order to get you admission for your masters, here in UNILAG we dont have source, you write your entrance test and if you make it then you are in the school.
welcome to citadel of knowledge....greatest akokite for life.
