Today I got an opportunity to teach 55 girls students to create Blog at Medan Info Desa Kg Paya. 30 of them are Puteri UMNO of Simpang Renggam Division and the rest are younger female Chineses and Indians from of MCA and MIC, the Barisan Nasional coalition party. I was invited to teach this subject 2 days ealier when I pay a visit to Medan Info Desa (MID) Kg Paya to see its manager, Mr Kamarul Azman to order a used Tablet PC from his assistant Mr Muhayat. Without second thought, I accepted the offer although I had never teach that course before. The real challenge is to squeeze that number of trainer into the 15'X15' MID surfing hall and control the crowd..ha ha !!. I promise to do some research as the reward of his reliance to me. I feel appraised for that.
By 8.00 am I reaches to the MID, nobody's around except a banner on the wire fence that tell that programme is absolutely held today, soon 3 cars approaching, as they alight from the cars I saw almost all of them are lady in pink ...voila!! the Puteri's had arrived. I left the spot to see the Poco-Poco Dance at the Community Hall nearby...see the footage below !
Interesting? but I need to get back to MID.... Luckily Muhayat the MID Assistant had arrived. Together we move all the 13 Desktop PC around the wall so the white wide tiled-floor space left in the middle. It will be easier to cramp the remaining half of the trainers on that space. I know Kamarul almost never turn on both of his 1.5HP Panasonic Air-Cond simultanously... No! today I must break his rule to avoid overheating problem from the crowd later...I turn on both of it! Sorry Pals! Ahaa.. Mr. Kamarul, there you come... ohoo Bukit Tongkat is quite a distant from Layang-Layang rigth? No need to excuse to me... you are the boss here!
Heyyy!! it's already 9.00am the class should be started now! Okay all of you girls, you can get in right now! and this how I put them into the class, they even have to bring their own laptop and netbooks (most of them is the NBI's 1 Malaysia Netbook receiver ) to join us...
At the end, we consider that half day session had succeeded to nurture the interest of the younger generation in using their creativity to learn blog technology and its application. New talents were identified and the course itself had boosted the ICT literacy and the usage of computers to the mass public.
You can tell it from their smiling faces of satisfaction!
Thanks to the organiser; UMNO Bahagian Simpang Renggam, the host Medan Infodesa Kg Paya and all the kind participants for given me the opportunity to me as Pusat Jalur Lebar Komuniti Felda Bukit Permai trainer to share this great experience as the main instructor / Head Trainer.
