<div>Dear Tim,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In democracies its very rare to have a 'common position'. What may be arrived by mutually consenting parties is consensus. But in the world of vested interests that is a mirage. In the Pedagogy of the Oppressed the author says 'freedom is like a childbirth'....its a painful process and many of us fear freedom.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Guess who made the parts of the speech below:-</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now that the dish is prepared, is very easy for people to eat it. But to prepare this dish was not a joke. I remember the first meeting we had, at Granja do Torto, which I understood absolutely nothing of this language that this people were deciding, and that was a huge tension between those who advocated for the adoption of free software by Brazil and those who thought we should do the sameness of always, buying, paying for others intelligence and, thanks God, prevailed in our country the issue and the decision of free software. We had to choose: or we were going to the kitchen to prepare this dish the way we wanted to eat, with the seasoning that we wanted, to give a Brazilian taste to our food, or we would eat what Microsoft wanted us to eat. Prevailed, simply, the idea of freedom.</div>

<div>Expecting such leadership now in Kenya is some tall order or you thing we can have the President and/or Prime Minister make something close to that? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Have a great week all.</div>

<div>I agree with you. However, our problem is that we do not have a common position amongst the stakeholders and that is why we have such a compromise in the policy statement. With or without the backing of huge $$ budgets, we must find a common position that is for the good of this country.</div>

Its good to have a policy that makes the playing field level. That is a good start and that is the basic minimum that should be expected. On the other hand, its very important to understand that for the sake of the interests of a country, its important to have a policy that supports what we believe is good for us. If we are all convinced that OSS is good for us, then there is no-one to stop us from having a policy that supports OSS very openly. Too bad if some Proprietary software houses will not like it. But we must learn to protect our national interests agressively. The many countries in Europe and the rest of the world have gone this direction and they are enjoying the benefits of OSS. In some developed countries like Germany and UK, the policies are there and they clearly state that (in Government) you can only buy proprietary software only if you cannot get a OSS option to do what you need to do.<br>
<br>As for the MoE, its very hard to penetrate to them as some of us have learnt. At the same time, the OSS advocates we have in this country (us included) have very limited capacities as we do not receive any funding from anyone. This is one of the handicaps that OSS advocacy has. We volunteer our resources (time and money) and have to compete with software companies that are supported by Marketing budgets that run into the Billion Dollars.<br>

accreditation system for ICT courses<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> Hallo David,<br> Last week there was furore in this forum<br>about media<br> misrepresentation of the Kenyan situation. The article<br>that you make<br>
reference to in today?s Standard (24.06.09) may be<br>accurate in the areas that<br> you have highlighted. However, I wish to take issue with<br>a few points raised<br> in the article.<br><br><a href="http://www.eastandard.net/education/InsidePage.php?id=1144017693&cid=316" target="_blank">http://www.eastandard.net/education/InsidePage.php?id=1144017693&cid=316</a><br>
<br><br> ?Unlike other academic fields, very<br>little has been done<br> to train most teachers in ICT skills. Currently, no<br>primary teacher training<br> college offers comprehensive pre-service training in<br>information technology.?<br>
<br> Anyone with a modest interest in education in<br>Kenya would not<br> miss something as obvious as a subject in the national<br>curriculum when reporting<br> in a national daily. Prior to the year 2004, a few<br>colleges had ICT skills<br>
courses for pre-service teachers based on in-house<br>curricula that were<br> independently developed by each college. The Primary<br>Teacher Education (PTE)<br> ICT curriculum developed by the Kenya Institute of<br>Education has been in<br>
force since the year 2004 and ICT is taught as a<br>compulsory subject in all<br> primary teacher training colleges. It is examined<br>internally at the end of<br> the first year and all students must pass in the subject,<br>
among other<br> subjects, in order to proceed to second year. There are<br>several<br> implementation hitches in this programme arising from the<br>fact that ICT is<br> being taught as a discrete subject in the curriculum and<br>
has yet to be<br> mainstreamed in the other subjects in the PTE curriculum.<br>The debate around<br> ICT- pedagogy integration in education and how to<br>operationalise it right<br> from curriculum development to classroom level<br>
implementation continues in<br> the education circles.<br><br> ?In-service training is often<br>provided by trainers who<br> are just barely literate in<br>computers?<br><br> In my knowledge, this has happened especially<br>
in instances when<br> some hardware providers ?dangle? teacher training as<br>an additional offer to<br> the institution. TTCs used to hire ICT technicians to<br>teach the course, but<br> in the last 2 years, the Teacher Service Commission has<br>
posted trained<br> lecturers of ICT to a number of TTCs. There have also<br>been some highly<br> professional training offered to college lecturers by<br>Microsoft (in<br> conjunction with the Institute of Advanced Technology -<br>
IAT) and the Kenya<br> Technical Teachers College. Computers for Schools Kenya<br>and the Nepad<br> e-schools teacher training programmes have also reached<br>teachers in selected<br> secondary schools. Lack of co-ordination (as with the<br>
rest of the ICT<br> initiatives in Kenya ), lack of clear training targets<br>and time-lines have<br> compromised continuity and impact of some of these<br>training programmes.<br><br> ?The<br>entire ICT education is in tatters?<br>
An interesting analogy there. But I see a<br>sector that is struggling<br> with what some scholars in educational reform have called<br>an ?implementation<br> dip? ? that for a number of reasons things normally<br>tend to get worse before<br>
they can get better. There are lots of difficulties in<br>implementing large<br> scale ICT initiatives in the education sector world over.<br>In our country,<br> there have been positive efforts by the Ministry of<br>
Education, the KIE and a<br> number of stakeholders in education, and these do count.<br>On the other hand,<br> there has been the tendency (by education leaders)<br>towards elaborate policy<br> documents, ?ICT networks? and trust funds whose<br>
mandates remain<br> indeterminate. All these need to be researched and<br>accurately presented.<br><br> Accurate reporting by the media and objective<br>analysis of both<br> the positives and difficulties are important in helping<br>
the public target<br> their attention and effort. Besides the inaccuracies, the<br>use of expressions<br> such as ?in tatters? ?the situation is bad?,<br>?alarmed professionals?<br> ?obsolete hardware? to describe ICT in education in<br>
Kenya sounds to me fairly<br> sensational.<br><br> Betty<br><br><br><br><br><br> --- On Wed, 6/24/09, David Otwoma<br><<a href="mailto:otwomad@gmail.com" target="_blank">otwomad@gmail.com</a>><br> wrote:<br><br>
