The Midwest conference of the comparative and international education society (CIES)

October 10-11,2014
I have learned more form this conference specially the Technology and Internationalization session presented by linden Herrera, Brenda Nyandiko, and Patrick Mose, Which is talking about the educational opportunities and challenges in developing countries and the online learning, as well as the mobile phones uses and the "education for all project" in Kenya I like the idea that Women were using peer-to-peer media for civic education in that project, and I was very interested to hear more about the principles of critical pedagogy in the online classroom they also talked about the non-traditional adult education.
 Technology is a tool to express about ourselves online but in the situation that we have in South Sudan I think we cant relay too much on it because there are huge number of people who are unreachable, and as we are living in the social media age, the question still remains in my mind, What exactly happen to the online files and digital records and which polices privacy is applied to keep them all safe?
