Hi,
While I was at our booth/tent after my presentation at the ICT
conference, I was approached by a lecturer from Kabarak and he invited
us Wikimedia Kenya to give a talk to his students. He told me they
were organizing a full day event on 23rd September (proposed date)
where their Computer science and IT students will attend to learn and
hear from various industry players such as us.
In his email ........"As the Firefox and Wikimedia we are aware that
you have a lot to offer educational institutions and we will be very
glad to have you participate......"
Essentially what he expects of us;
1. A thorough exposition of the
resources available from Wikimedia.
2. Possible collaborations with the
university.
3. Opportunities available for students
in terms of industrial attachments and
projects.
4. Any other offering that we have that
can add value to the students.
They expect to have a plenary where each company/organisation among
which they shall invite will have at least 1 hr to address the
students as well as an exhibition for further demonstrations.
That was their proposal and he added that we feel freely free to make
suggestions on how we can make it better.
Cheers,
Stephen
