2. Know Your Purpose: Many beginners want to learn coding because of some perceived benefits. So, they are in a hurry to get the benefits but they are confused because they don't go about it the "right" way. The first thing to do is to ignore those benefits and ask yourself: why do I want to learn? Is it to get a Job (work for companies) or make things (work for myself directly)? Then, you will be clear about the next step to take. Even if you are not clear about your next step, don't panic because we have got you covered. Keep on reading! |

It is quite unfortunate that majority of the students who took their time to read books and attend tutorials for Jamb's Use of English Examination failed to pass excellently due to misplacement of priority on the part of their teachers and authors. In this 2 minutes and 2 seconds video, I have identified the causes of this poor performance and also set directions on how to achieve excellent results in the forthcoming UTME examination. Don't forget, "stupidity is doing things the same way and expect different results". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxsPlZgYKBU |

How to Pick a Programming Language/Framework to Learn in Your Own Way(2020) -- series #1 It is very common for beginner software developers to be confused about the tech-stack to learn. At least, I was confused. And I post this article to help you pick what to learn to help you avoid confusion to some extent. Below are steps to help you pick tech-stacks to learn in 2020 without stress. 1. Get Rid of All the Noise in your Head. You have heard or read a lot of things that are affecting your choice. PHP is dead! Python is a bae! Java is enterprise! JavaScript is weird! All these make it difficult for you to choose what to learn easily. So you are confused.

Then, you will be clear about the next step to take. Even if you are not clear about your next step, don't panic because we have got you covered. Keep on reading! 3. What "Platform" Do I Like to Work With? It is very important to be clear about the platform you want to work with to be less confused. Is it? Web Mobile Machine Learning Virtual Reality Security Or others. Then Pick One "Platform" You Love. 4. Picking A Programming Language/Framework. If I want to work for companies and I like to work as a web developer, the next move is to look for international, local and remote job's requirements. Then look for recurring stacks with little things to learn. Note the recurring stacks with Notion or Habitica. Just make sure you keep a record of recurring stacks. Then... 5. Going Specific: You maybe confused because there are a lot to learn. Therefore, I would ask myself again: Is it possible to specialise to reduce the number of things to learn? Frontend or Backend. Then, check job's requirements for each of them. Rinse & repeat. 6. Then Pull the Trigger: Pick a programming language/framework you feel is widely used in your field or the one that makes most money based on your findings. That is your choice because everything comes with it's downside. So, be ready for the consequences of your choice. 7. Case Two: Working Directly For Yourself. You will still use the same methodology but in this case, you may need to check freelance websites and have additional skills like selling, marketing, networking, emotional intelligence and all those business stuff. 8.

I have been trying to avoid all the jamborees about rape and the way female are now becoming 'anti-male' in the process. I was even afraid of how it would turn out but I am not born a coward. It is time to break my silence. We are standing firm to fight rape and other bad practices against female but -- the way female folks are taking it -- we are digging our own graves. Who is not a rapist? Remember the day that lady seduced you when she wanted it but acted when you about to dig deep into her prestigious hollow to protect her pride. She came in as a friend. She said your room was too hot and yank off all her clothes revealing her cleavages while talking to you with a seductive voice like a female rock star advertising lickable substances. You reach out to her but some munites into the act; she said, "Oh! You are forcing me" to protect her pride. You stopped again and again until you fall for her iterated traps. Remember the day you and your wife or girlfriend were about to get into the act and she said, "If you don't give me the money, you are forcing me". You have forgotten! Remember the day that she told you, "I am shy, you have to force me into the act if you want me to do it". That day, you fell for it, but she is now your wife or girlfriend. But you still don't know you are a rapist. It might hunt you down sooner or later. We need to be careful the way we handle rape cases, it is more than the way we take it on the surface. What do you think? |

Improve your chance of getting a job in Nigeria: Learn Websites Development Now: This application is going to be huge. You may see it as your portfolio; it is an online book store where you can buy and sell books. So we can’t just jump into coding it without planning everything from the get-go (Plan On Your Own — POYO). For this reason, let’s divide this app into frontend and backend . We are going to use React basically for the frontend and Laravel for the backend. But wait! I assume you have learnt HTML, CSS (Bootsrapt), javaScript, and PHP; if not, you may need to learn them before reading this article; www.w3schools.com and www.freecodecamp.org can get you started. Yeah! Once you know the basic, let’s get started (Aja one gbera!). Let’s install Laravel framework: But before then, we need to download and install: Git from www.git-scm.com WampServer (3.1.0 and above — not bellow) from https://www.filehorse.com/download-wampserver-32/old-versions/ or www.wampserver.com — better still, google untill you find the required version. Composer from www.getcomposer.org. Once they are installed, you can sip a bottle of Zobo ( “herbal drink”) and relax. No! No!No! I didn’t mean that because we still have to confirm whether they have been installed properly. After installation, you should see Git (Git-bash) and Wampserver icons on your computer. Sometimes when you work on an old windows OS, Wampserver may be missing MSVCR120 | MSVCR140 etc.; all you need to do in that case is to uninstall Wampserver, google to download and install the MSVCR(version) that is not on your computer; then install Wampserver again. Viola, you are good to go. Now, let’s confirm whether composer installation was successful. You need to launch Git or Git bash on your computer; then, run: composer -v and you should get something similar to the image bellow if everything went fine. a result from running: composer -v Since everything is fine, it’s time we install Laravel installer by running the code bellow in our Git console. //install laravel installer composer global require "laravel/installer" //confirm if it is successful laravel -v If it is successful, you should see: result of a successful installation of laravel installer Everything is fine. Let’s start our project: //laravel new project-name laravel new bookstore Oops! Why always me? Why error! Why? Oh! I get it. May be you did not select the latest version of PHPwhen you were installing Composer. If that is the case, Laravel 5.6 can’t work with PHP version bellow 7.1.3. Make sure you select the latest PHP version while installing Composer. Let’s launch our Laravel app : //Open our project cd bookstore //launch our project php artisan serve Yay! Check localhost:8000 in your browser, our bookstore application is up and running. One more thing! React Installation. As we are going to use Laravel with React, it is advantageous to make use of the React preset that is present in Laravel 5.5 and above. I am going to do this quickly as in: //install the react preset in laravel php artisan preset react // compile the react fresh scaffolding npm install && npm run dev Everything should be fine after doing that. We have set up the backbones of our project. Yeah! It is time to celebrate. Don’t forget to send me a bottle of Zobo or clap | share bellow if this article is useful. Wait! If you want to use Eeact alone ,without Laravel, check React documentation to see how to install it. Also, if you don’t know how to use Git, tell me in the comment section and your hills shall be made straight. You can tell me your observation. Thanks for reading. Power to your brain!

I am currently developing a website that is meant to teach web developers how to build working websites from the beginning to the end with JavaScript (React) and PHP (Laravel). I would have copied and pasted everything here, but code is not that readable here.

bkool7:If you read this write-up completely, at a point I mentioned that a printed material should be given to students at the beginning of every term. You said they always read why writing, yet why is that many students still don't remember anything about the topic when you ask questions late? It is not helpful compared to what can be achieve if they use the 45mins and energy involved to read instead of copying notes. The printed material is not irrelevant since students already have the notes they would worry to write. So, they will concentrate in class. And at the same time, it gives teachers to go further, explain very well, demonstrate, give related examples and more. Students would have had access to teachers tutorial questions and look for more questions to ask from such teachers. That will go a long way to supercharge students and teachers efficiency. Thanks for your time. |
bkool7:Thanks for disagreeing with me. I am not claiming that teachers should not write lesson plan, yet it should be flexible. When I said printed materials, i mean a guide that contains teachers' explanations, tutorial questions, quizzes, summary and the rest. So that clears you point on voluminous textbook. Students can buy textbooks if they can afford it. Won't you plan the lesson before you design a printed and scrutinized material? On handwriting, as I have said, teachers will have more time to test students and students will still jot in classes... That will help their handwriting and spelling skills. You mentioned two periods, what do you want to explain in a period compared to having chance to use both periods. Above all, the time and energy students waste in class to copy notes, can be used on reading or learning generally. |
DesChyko:You really pointed out undeniable points but wouldn't it be better if all those quizzes , assignments, teachers' explanation and summary are included in a printed material? I also agree that class is one of the best places to learn, yet my concern is that time and energy that should be used on reading, learning and other things are mostly wasted on copying school notes that most students don't read eventually. I don't think copying school notes is necessary as long as there is a printed material that contains teachers' explanations, summary, tutorial questions, quizzes, and other things... Such will divert students' attention, time and energy to real learning. |

Any time I go to class to teach students at my PPA as a corp member, I always feel that something is wrong with writing school notes in class for so many reasons that affect teachers and students in the process. Why must student write "school note" instead of jotting? I always ask myself this question everyday. And most of the time, I didn't come up with reasonable answers for them to do so.Despite my prejudice, I forced myself to raise some answers for and against. An experienced teacher, unlike me, would say it makes reading materials available to them since many of them cannot buy textbooks in this country due to poverty and some other factors. Um! Some may claim that it helps parents ,guiders and teachers to monitor students' behavior, efficiency and seriousness in schools.Yes! When you check their notes, you can easily know the last time they go to school or write notes and as good parents, teachers or guiders; one would realize that something is needed to be done about such a student. Wow!Fantastic reasons! I am sure experienced teachers would still have so many reasons an inexperienced teacher like me can't think of. One can then conclude that, there are so many reasons -- economically, psychologically, professionally or whatever -- for them to write "school notes". Thanks or no thanks, I am not convinced! Those reasons are not sufficient to accept the disadvantages that come with it. Learning is personal in most cases! It is not easy to teach a student when he/she is not ready and willing to learn.Their willingness and readiness are the first things to work on. Even in most things, willingness and readiness are the crucial factors to excellence. How then will writing notes or notes be useful to a student that is not ready and willing to learn whatsoever? Writing notes in schools makes it difficult for teachers to inspire students to have reasons to learn. Most schools give 45 minute per period.Within the period, a teacher can either explain or write note or both. Whichever method above such teacher chooses gives him/her a limit to demonstrate the subject or topic in such a way to inspire students to pick books to read. The first purpose is to inspire students to learn. How do you expect students to concentrate when they have notes to copy? It is very common for students to write notes while teachers explain.As a result, they don't always get the explanation very well from the teacher concerned. Writing notes in class and its attendant lesson notes influence weak or non-brilliant teachers not to prepare for classes. It is tempting to feel comfortable when you have not prepared for classes because all you need to do is to open you lesson note to do a progressive "copy and paste".Let's face it! Such and such forces teachers that might have tried to improve to remain the same.It goes without saying that writing notes in school is one of the things that make students to be tired or make them hate going to school. Students have to use energy to write about five to seven different notes everyday. Each of the notes covers at least 45 minutes. What the heck! That is too tedious for students. Some of us who did run out of class in secondary school will probably say that writing school notes was the core source of our lack of seriousness. Many teachers would claim that students of nowadays are not serious but they have never taken time to check if their methods are contributing factors. Many teachers are no longer conducting research since the lesson note is seen as sufficient. Though every system can be influenced negatively but stopping coping notes will allow students to focus more on what really matters, which is learning; and teachers would be able to concentrate on demonstrations and explanations instead of copying notes. Instead of wasting students energy on writing notes, why don't we think of another way to let them focus on learning in a cheap or even cheaper way compared to the present system. There is an obvious way out, some are using it already, and it is very cheap. The only problem is our attitude towards positive change.First, stop writing schools note mentality and any thing connected to it. Instead of using about seven to ten note books which cost a reasonable amount of money, why don't students just have a big note book as a jotter for noting important things mentioned by their teachers.The move would enable students to concentrate in class. What then will students read at home? Students should be given printed materials as school notes at beginning of every term. Students can use such to prepare before teachers come to class. This measure may encourage "read before class" attitude among students. It is arguable that such material is cheap for poor students who can't afford buying textbooks. Oh! Don't you think giving students printed materials would affect their handwriting? No, it wouldn't. With these measures, teachers will have sufficient time to conduct test from time to time to monitor the progress of their learning. Therefore, students will improve their handwriting by jotting and writing various "in-class" tests.As it is not possible to write everything about this matter, it is time to end this write-up to give you a chance to think about everything to criticize or contribute some favourable reasons. Thanks for reading. Feel free to share this. By Ogundiran Ayobami..

People don't always show that prevention is better than cure when it comes to using fire for cooking. Some people do lock all entrances to their houses including windows while cooking. *Don't ever do that consciously or unconsciously again* Locking yourself up in a house while cooking is dangerous in a case of fire outbreak because human beings tend to be afraid. Once you are afraid, you might lose your thinking rationality: You may not know where your bunch of keys are; even when you find it easily, it will take time to pick up the one that is suitable for opening the door. Before you open the door to carry buckets of water or run away, fire might have escalated or its smoke might have affected you.. *Think safety first*: Don't lock your house or kitchen entrances while cooking. *EMV : Safety First* *From all of us @ NYSC NEMA CDS Group, Ilorin Chapter* Share with friends and family ... A disaster free world, starts with you. *...To be continued* |
Happy chrishmas in advance.
