I was invited as a representative from Nepal Fyling Labs to give a short, five minute lightning talk on the technology we were using at the Digital Technologies for Resilience Workshop. The presentation focused on sharing the story of the lab about getting to the scale it wanted to reach mentioning some key areas where it wants to focus. The Digital Technologies for Resilience, organized by FHI 360 with funding and support from the Rockefeller Foundation and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), will be held in Bangkok, Thailand on November 14-15, 2017.

Our prime focus is to localize the technology by engaging communities,
innovate and make effective use of technologies.

Cliff Mupangavanhu discussed the need for 21st century skills among many teachers and how connectivity and technology can create educational opportunities. He argued that limited resources need to be optimized through an outcome-driven and learner-centric approach enabled by technology. This shift would allow schools to reach thousands of schools, millions of teachers, and hundreds of millions of students, ultimately enhancing quality and access to education.

Feedback and recognition

FITT Toolbox: Cluster Collaboration Platform

FITT

The presented online cooperation platform was developed to give cluster managers and other cluster stakeholders access to current information and trends. It is set up in form of a Social Network on the topic ‘cluster management’ and offers users/members a central information tool, where knowledge is documented and exchange is fostered. Therefore it is an efficient way to foster exchange between experts, to build up a repository of knowledge including success stories and to present the topic to a broader public. www.FITT-for-Innovation.eu

Technology Use Plan Presentation

merimaronneburg

The document outlines a technology use plan for a school. It establishes a planning team made up of administrators, staff, parents, students, and community members. The team will meet every two weeks to focus on research, input, feedback, and recommendations. The plan's goals are to enhance existing technologies, purchase new technologies, provide professional development, and achieve a one-to-one computing environment with always-on and cloud computing. Needs assessments and evaluations will be conducted to guide a three-year plan for technology use that is adapted to changing technologies in education.

nikhiljoshi210

This document outlines an assignment for setting up an app development training in rural areas. It discusses the team members and proposes creating an online rural innovation agency to provide resources, education, collaboration and support for spurring innovation in rural and remote communities. It describes how the agency would help connect innovators and provide tools and instruction to realize their ideas. Revenue would come from membership fees and taking stakes in commercialized projects. The agency would develop online tools and provide educational curricula and resources to enable innovation.

Challenges for Managing Complex Application Portfolios: A Case Study of South...

IJMIT JOURNAL

This document summarizes an interview-based study on the challenges of managing complex application portfolios in the public sector, using the South Australia Police (SAPOL) as a case study. The key findings were: 1) Application portfolios grew organically over time through quick fixes that prioritized immediate needs over long-term architecture. 2) Integrating diverse technologies led to sustainability issues and increased operational costs to maintain the complex, non-standard portfolio. 3) Rationalizing the portfolio could reduce costs and free up resources for new initiatives, but requires ongoing effort due to the portfolio's size and complexity.

CHALLENGES FOR MANAGING COMPLEX APPLICATION PORTFOLIOS: A CASE STUDY OF SOUTH...

IJMIT JOURNAL

This research explores the challenges in management and the root cause for complex application portfolios in the public sector. It takes Australian public sector organisations with the case of South Australia Police (SAPOL) for evaluation it being one of the significant and mission critical state government agencies. The exploratory research surfaces some of the key challenges using interview as primary data collection source, along with archive records, documentation, and direct observation as secondary sources. This paper reports on the information analysed surfacing eight key issues. It highlights that the organic growth of the technology portfolios, with mission criticality has resulted in many quick fixes which are not aligned with long term enterprise architectural stability. Integration of different mismatched technologies, along with the pressure from the business to always keep the lights on, does not provide the opportunity for the portfolios to be rationalised in an ongoing way. Other issues and the areas for further study are explored at the end.

Technology 101: Online Tools that Can Work for Your Organization

National Partnership for Educational Access

This document summarizes a presentation about technology options for nonprofits. It discusses that (1) technology options for nonprofits range from millions to billions, but most nonprofits have not kept up with technology; (2) nonprofits typically spend less than 10% of their budget on administrative costs including IT; and (3) managing IT projects requires requirements gathering, design/build, product evaluation, and deployment. The document then discusses opportunities for nonprofits in cloud computing and how technology, when implemented properly, can help nonprofits move from paper-based to data-driven and achieve sustainable impact and return on investment. It emphasizes that people and processes are still critical alongside technology.
