May 1, 2007, We have a very healthy discussions on the topic called Technology of Participation (TOP), this is basic group facilitation methods manual, one of the sub topics that is hard to forget is the acroname ORID, where O -stands for Objective, R- for Reflective, I-is Interpretative and D- for Decisional. The speaker maam Happy Balesteros stresses on the role of the facilitator in the different conferences, conflict managent and resolving issues in a certain organization, it has several components like Personal, Physical, Journey and Style that needs to be considered by a facilitator, In the afternoon, we are trained how to construct specific questions in ORID, after wards we decided to come up with Assessment of mentees in the implementation of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT)- Learning Activity (LA)s and other Mind Tools, the session was realistic because we come up in a finish product which is useful to the next SMART mentors. Thanks God for chance to see the light once again, life is challenging.
