#papersmustfall agree!

We all agree that at some point #papersmustfall. Just take a look at your desk and the desks of your colleagues. Its stressful, unhealthy and really eats your energy. Pushing papers in your desks is not an evidence that you are working hard.

What stops us to learn bit by bit to shred the papers we come across on our desks into online. There are thousands of online tools that can help you join the paperless society. I have tried to replace my handbook diary into google calendar, ONENOTE tool to take notes in meetings, workshops and any forum I attend.

Bit by bit I find new skills to deal with my situation. I no longer own a file. I send all my reports and evidence by sharing a link with my supervisor through my Drive on Google Drive. All my pictures are on Google Photos. If  you really want this paperless environment join the club and become effective in everything you can.
"smart", I just learnt to use a

Web and App 2enable teachers teach easy

I love both 2Enable Web and App. What stand out to me is that you can teach learners offline using 2Enable app.

First thing first, What is 2Enable?  You probably got lost in this conversation. It is a free digital curriculum, a management system that allow teachers to teach and learners to learn at ease and free.

This platform gives a Curriculum Assessment Policy Statement (Caps) aligned weekly lessons for teachers to follow.  Learners take live assessment and do revision on the work they didn't understand. 

These teachers will soon use 2Enable

2Enable houses all subjects offered in South Africa to all schools if they decide to register and become a hub to offer it. At the moment Mpumalanga Department of Education has identified nine schools to implement 2Enable.

All my devices have a 2Enable app and I can log in on the web to access my classroom as a mentor and organisation administrator to a school of my choice which uses 2Enable. 

Do you have devices in your school? laptops, tablets, smartphone why not download the app or surf the web to get 2Enable or call me for a short presentation. 

Take Gogo Simelane's advice

In the middle of draught and cold winter days Gogo Simelane's community activism stands out at this school. She competes with everything that stand on her way to provide healthy diet to Sbukosethu Primary School's children in eMalahleni.

You don't need a certificate or an advanced diploma to tackle important issues that matter to your community, take Gogo's advice.  "I saw it as an opportunity to contribute positively to my communty" said Gogo Simelane passionately. I started with a small portion here and now the garden extends everyday.

The government feeds millions of children in both primary and secondary schools through a National School Nutrition Programme (NSNP). Gogo Simelane ensures that no kid goes  to school without food. She has voluntarly partnered with the government.

She appreciates every drop of water just to make sure her vegetables grow to the fullest for the children's food. She is a true community builder and a patriotic citizen that our country is looking forward to have.
