I remember when Saitoti was the Education Minister and he was releazing KCSE results( I think at KIE) he handed the results to the KNEC Secretary in a CD and he (Saitoti) said they he was handing the results in a diskette! I think the fellows do not know the difference between a diskette, a flash disk and a CD (DVD, VCD). But if they want to buy Diskettes, then we are doomed! 2009/8/5 Crystal Watley Kigoni <crystal@voicesofafrica.org>
The critical issue I think we are missing is the generation of the curriculum... Shouldn't the youth in the country have a hand in designing the courses to be taught? Crystal

I just came across this article in the standard where Hon. Sam Ongeri
is
basically saying that e-learning will get sanctioned by the government; http://www.eastandard.net/InsidePage.php?id=1144020723&cid=4
However, some of his comments made me wonder if there are any IT savvy people in the ministry of education:
"*Ongeri said: 'The use of digital content in teaching and learning is timely... He said all budget allocations to schools for purchase of course books would now be transferred to purchase of diskettes for the curriculum'*".
Diskettes?
