'eLA 2008' is the short version of 'eLearning Africa 2008' conference. It was held in Accra, Ghana 29-30 May 2008. I was privileged to participate in it. Just like it happened one year ago in eLA 2007 (in Nairobi), I met new friends, got new ideas, attained new knowledge and got new inspiration. What remains is for me is to use them to improve my life and the life of those around me.
I should soon write specific posts on some of the the people I met, the knowledge I acquired, the things that inspired me. Web 2.0, some amazing technologies and some personalities will definitely be part of the posts. I will not be fair not to talk about the roads in Ghana, the food, the weather and the vehicles.
The trip to Ghana was not uneventful - fuel and a technical fault in the plane are the highlights that stand out. I think it will be fair to write a complete story after experiencing the return leg (I am still in Accra as I write). I am scheduled to leave Accra next week but I am already home sick so I should change my itinerary and get back home sooner. Watch this space for more about eLA 2008 and my first time in Ghana.
