"Hold You Fire"
A visit to Bato National High school

December 16,2008 our group went to Bato national high school to bring the good news to everyone. The opportunity of learning computer basics to enable them practice their skills as well as to develop what they already have. Students were nice and accommodating. They have this so-called passion and eagerness for learning- a nice indication that our self-set goal will be accomplish in a matter of 3 session time frame.
Future is really at hand for this young people.

Our subject for that computer basic training is the IV-year students of that school to innovate their skills that they could use in their future life in college. They were given questionnaire that contains questions that will helpe us assess the training they need most. At first, we were quite nervous for those kids eyed us with so much interest and curiosity. Nervous!!!!!!!!!
That was a good sign though.

nevertheless, that visit was one of the best in our lives. That was a chance to improve the skills of those kids as well as a good opportunity of holding the fire burn in their hearts for accepting knowledge and learning through our own little way of sharing our best to them.

The C part of ICT refers to the communication of data by electronic means, usually over some distance. This is often achieved via networks of sending and receiving equipment, wires and satellite links. The technologies involved in communication tend to be complex. You certainly don't need to understand them for your ICT course. However, there are aspects of digital communications that you needs to be aware of. These relate primarily to the types of network and the ways of connecting to the Internet.

Goal: the goal of this technology skills training is to impart skills to selected highschool students for training opportunities and to enhance their innate talents and abilities in handling computer as well as their dream of learning how computer works.
