mykhell50: hehehe...i dey mariere tooRoom no.? |
Fynestboi: [size=20pt]which do you agree with to start this stage next week or next year...?? [/size]I think next week would make more sense cosidering the fact that when school resumes next year, the schedule would definitely be tight. |
Capital NO! |
Fynestboi: [size=20pt] GROUP AWhy don't we have an overview showing all groups, their respective teams and the fixed matches? Having to be checking back and forth whose A1, D3, B2 etc can be a bit draining ![]() |
Fynestboi: [size=20pt] IF YOU SUPPORT THIS IDEA PLEASE SIGNIFY...[/size]Its a very good idea and I would have supported it but for time and logistics constraints. It would stretch the time of the entire competition and as a result could make it too tedious and some may gradually lose the drive and enthusiasm. |
I believe the OP probably due to dearth of enough graphical images didn't do enough justice to show Unilag. Where is the main auditorium building, where is the faculty of engineering buildings with its courtyards and greenery, where is the faculty of sciences (which is about the best building in the school in my opinion and understanding as an architect), the beautiful scenery of the lagoon front? a better and more interesting view of the senate would have been better appreciated plus a view of the new GT bank building will also shed more light on the beauty of the campus and also the julius berger hall? OP u no try mehn.. |
[quote author=Okija_juju]Mods Please rename this thread.. Its no longer Unilag, but MAULAG.. Tenks!!![/quote]"Time waits for no one"......so kindly move with it sir |

Austin, the former president of ur department association is my good friend and we go a long way back. |

Fynestboi: [size=50pt]QUALIFYING STAGE: ELIMINATION:::: Fynestboi: [size=20pt]SNOOPY UNILAGWow, interesting.... |
Kiingsolomon: Hello!.... Please I hear people say "You can do your dept/faculty registration ANY TIME"Its possible, but I STRONGLY advice against it. Try and do it at the scheduled time cuz if u do it outside the schedule, you could run into hiccups and they'ld be tossing you here and there and it'ld be worse if lectures have started. |
Pastor Kun: The Pastor Oseni must have been drunk when he made that statement. He should first repent from the tithe fraud perpetuated in his church before he thinks of ridding Lagos of criminals. Mintayo: Sometimes i doubt if you are a Spirit-filled christain. But with this ur post above,you have nothing Christlike in you.100 likes |
[quote author=I-am-Winner]What a debate!. UNILAG.. It was cheap 4 u guys sha.. AAUA.. The chief speaker was onpoint but you guys lost due to lack of adequate research.. Kudos to both teams.. I rep UNIBEN!![/quote]Erm...err....It wasn't easy o...at least I didn't think it was. We got a fairly good challenge in my books |
Guseh: Let me quickly give credit where credit is due.Thank you sir, your words are highly appreciated |
Just using this opportunity to thank those who supported us today, I throway salute. Wish tomorrows debaters good luck and Godspeed. |
To my opponents: ayotimide77 and gbemi09 you guys really put me on my toes, it was fun competing with y'all and I learnt a few stuff from y'all. Great job from you guys |
[quote author=♥Dεs•Chγκσ♥]Congrats To UNILAG!! Good Battle I must say.. Lemme share some feelings with y'all contestants.. Snoopy, Your command of English and the arrangement of your work was second to none. The introduction and arrangement of arguments were spectacular. Your amazing point totally had me..at least until I read the argument of the opposing side.. Welldone. Damoskiy.. I expected to see definitions for 'debate' and 'supporting' as well. I think you could do with less definitions though. And your points were self-contradictory. However, you did good enough. Only you need to work as a team. Ayomitide77 Frankly, your presentation was really bad. The work looks so shabby like an overnight job. However, there's no denying the quality of information housed in your work. That's why the poor presentation showed a lot. I think your argument convinced me much more than any other. Just two tips: Take your time in preparing and drive your points home. Gbemmie09 You listed your points before explaining, like a text book instead of an essay. That sucks. But that 'John De Werey' quote of yours at the end about new ways of teaching was absolutely brilliant. Don't think I'll ever forget it.. Your team's argument is quite impressive and really worth looking into.[/quote]Thank you kind sir |
[quote author=♥Dεs•Chγκσ♥]Hmmm.. Nice battle.. Snoopy, where went you last time when Epaul and his cohort brushed your 'Unilag' aside?? Well..Nice attempt by UI to bring back your side on track..although, I still don't really see a slingshot victory for your team today.[/quote]I don't understand sir, there wasn't a time we contested against Epauls delsu |
aysuccess99: easy boss, why is that we NIGERIANS like to look at the disadvantage of things and not the advantage....i know that there's nothing that don't have its advantage or disadvantage...but why don't you look into the advantages, what about those lecturers that do set online test, projects etc.... the main thing is that students interaction with teachers isn't bad but it is just that we Nigerians like to misuse or abuse things....BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.Lol but what if those disadvantages are actually important and can't be neglected? That's the essence of this debate. And your closing phrase simply highlights what I've been saying all along. |
aysuccess99: am nt saying dat the teacher shld be fwends with all his students on social media, bt he shld jst be able to have another way of communicating with the class rep peradventure, if he doesn't have the class rep number...This is not as complicated as it seems, you need to undestand that no one is saying its bad. But what if the teacher uses it for communication outside educational circles and considering it could also be WIDELY used for other negative stuff, how do you reconcile that? The school can do without social networks just fine and the ills of social networks will only be draw-back on the standard of education...that's my argument basically. Thanks for the compliments...I did my best sha....I don tire lol |
aysuccess99: but how can he communicate with the class rep like for example, during this ASUU strike...what do u tink the teacher can do if u doesn't have the students number and he jst have only his facebook id, what do you think abt this? I REST MY CASE....for the teacher NOT to have the phone number of his class rep whose also a proxy figure BUT be friends with each and every one of his student on social networks would rather be absurd. |
aysuccess99: @UNILAG, u guys said are supporting d motion dat teachers shld be ban from interacting with the students through social media...but don't u tink it's so unfair and untrue...because, i and my teachers do chat on social media and he do give me tips on hw to study, hw to be morally upright etc....bt if such teachers her ban from interacting with students, wld i have the opportunity to be able to receive such a vital advice and don't u tink it may affect such a student negatively when such a student need that kind of crucial advice.we are not saying its a bad idea. We are saying the dangers far outweigh the gains. Yes, you and your teacher use such medium positively but how do you control the negative use. Take for instance a student who poured her heart out on Nairaland about how one of her lecturers wanted to sleep with her and she's on the verge of agreeing to the proposal simply because she's been boxed to a tight corner and her temporary respite is the ongoing ASUU strike where the lecturer had no means of further harrassing her. If they had been interacting on social networks, dont you think her 'little respite" where she can strategise on how to outwit such rogue lecturer would have been a mere fantasy? |
aysuccess99: but sir, i quite agree with you....bt what do u think the teacher can do if he want to pass a very important information to the students, if they are not on social media? cos i've seen a situation whereby lecturers have to go to facebook and inform his students about the latest development in the faculty, and that information was very essential and important, and assuming one of his students his nt his friend on facebook, hw do u tink he wld be able 2 pass d info to other students?The teacher doesn't necessarily have to be the one contacting the students one by one on social networking websites to pass the info. Thats what class reps are there for. The teacher could just pass the info to the class rep and the class rep can in turn inform his colleagues and could even do it via the social media platform. |
aysuccess99: @ snoopy, u also said and i quote:`how can a teacher convincingly speak against smoking or substance abuse if students have access to pictures portraying the teacher themselves drinking or smoking'i think that is inconsequetial in the sense that the drinking and smoking habit of the teacher is personal and does not in anyway negate the teaching abilities of the teacher in his field. But then again it depends on what level the teacher is. you cant tell me a professor in the University who smokes is unworthy of being a professor. But if the teacher is at the primary school level, his ablities could be called to question considering the role a teacher plays at this level BUT it still doesnt hamper his/her teaching abilities as the teacher wont be oblivious its a bad habit which is essentally why such details which is considered personal should be kept private. |
aysuccess99: @snoopy, u said `or otherwise within itself could further lower the already education standard particularly in Nigeria...'....i.e u mean dat teachers and students interaction is degrading our educational system....No sir what i meant was that the idea of a student-teacher interaction on social networks is susceptible to being abused by questionable characters both on the teacher side and the student side and the end result is what can further reduce the value of our education system |
yuzedo: Loved your presentation. Only one to supply the correct heading too. Thank you.Thank you sir |
Ayomitide77: Nothing sir as there are other means of learning that such students can apply like using like textbook reading,visiting school or public libraries and do on. Social networking websites is also a means of learning just like other means.I should ask you, how would you feel if among ALL your colleagues at work, you are the ONLY one who does not have a car and treks a sizeable distance to work everyday, how would you feel about such situation? disadvantaged? No? A honest answer will be appreciated. |
gbemmie09: Lead to what? Teachers have policy guiding them, so they know when to draw a line when interacting with their students.well said. but you should understand that considering the intricasies of social networks, that line could be 'erased' albeit inadvertently. |
Ayomitide77: Teachers organizing quizzes and tutorials for students on social networking sites is mainly to aid what they were taught in the class and students missing out of this is negligible.I disagree with you kind sir, it is not negligible. thinking the financial incapacities of the 'few' poor students not being able to fully partake in educational activities as a result of being financially handicapped as negligible will amount to discrimination. And what do you think this will do to the morale of such student? |
Abu Mikey:personal information like age, personal interests e.t.c, not all social networks provide the option for such details to be hidden, and should the teacher want to share those information with his friends and acquaintances, and subsequently does, the fact that he/she has his student on the same social network will obviously let the student in on those details as well. |
