As an Online Social Media Reporter for the 2015 African University Day; i experienced a lot of things;
- I got experience of Volunteering for an international body that sees or govern the operations of higher institution.
- Secondly i got the chance to work with many group of people and of different calibers like Dr, professors, great lecturers and students from different institution.
- Thirdly it made me to have the chance to interview and profiled one of the most outstanding lecturer at our local University i.e Prof. Dr Christopher Oyat of Gulu University.
- The Social Media has increased my efficiency level in responding to work place before me and it has improved my writing skills on the social media and communication skills.
- It has been fun seeing post from different people all over Africa and the world.
My recommendations
- The association should give prizes for the volunteers after the exercise.
- The Association should continue to give certificates to the social media reporters both electronic and hard copy.
- The association should offer recognition for some lecturers who has greatly contribution to the different developments of Higher Education in Africa in terms of certificates etc.
- The association should look for scholarship position or offer scholarship for the social media reports.
- The association should offer exchange visits for the social media reporters.
