A New Culture on How We Learn and The General Education System in Kenya

Did You Know... 

In a fast-paced economy where there are numerous inventive disruptions to how and when we might learn, self-learning is becoming one of the most difficult types of learning. On the other hand, if you don't have a system in place, there are a lot of distractions that you may experience when learning. 

Keep in mind that in a self-paced learning setting, there is no one to supervise you or direct you. Overall, you have to do it alone and time management is key in the entire journey. Here are some ideas from my diary that you might want to consider: 

1.  Learn something you'd like to do in the future. 
2. Develop a workflow and plan, and schedule time for learning when there are fewer distractions in your daily activities. 
3. Learn something relevant to your career path and consider how you will apply it in the future; find the motivating factor! 
4. Make a pattern for completing anything you've started. Your mind will adapt to the levels of performance you give it. 
5. Conduct a self-audit before beginning a new subject. 
6. Avoid randomness because it will make procrastination your friend.
7. Enroll in a course that will allow you to earn a certificate, points, or a location to display your progress and product. 
8. Intentionally plan a public launch or showcase of your abilities (Tell and Show) 
9. Take several short courses rather than one long course. Short courses are a great motivator for creating a culture of self-paced learning. 
10. Establish your Leandro objectives and define your WHY, WHAT, WHEN, and HOW. 

I'm determined to finish this course by Creative Economy eLearning Platform (britishcouncil.org)

This is a great course for anyone who wants to learn more about the creative economy. Here is my first certificate;

 Yesterday, around 8 p.m., I encountered a group of children as young as 5 years old playing randomly in the street, with some playing dangerous games. It is extremely concerning that children have been left to play at random in the street late at night. Some would argue that it is a normal culture in informal settlements or underserved communities, particularly during school vacations. But I believe there is ample opportunity for us to challenge the status quo, beginning with how we approach parenting and instilling a new culture change.
