Two guests presented very useful and hands-on sessions on the use of Web 2.0 tools. We learned how to create personal blogs and Wikis for groups who share a similar interest(s). We will be using these tools on a daily basis to communicate our thoughts on given sessions of the day.
We are set for serious, hard work over the festive season. When Prof. Theo Bothma outlined the work we have to complete by the end of the academy and by February 19th 2011, I kept wondering how I got to immerse myself in something that now seems to be burdensome. I was shaken by the apparent strict and very hands-on approach at this academy. It seems they really mean what they say. There is a certificate of competence that we have to earn at the end of the academy. If you do get a pass, there is even a graduation ceremony.
