mobile camp
First of all thanks a lot for the great and informative post. Despite of the fact that this article is written before several months, it is still interesting and useful for me because I am really interested in mobile camps. Reading this post I have found some useful information which I have not known before. It would be really great to join mobile camp and now I am thinking about this possibility. Thanks a lot one more time and I will be waiting for other great posts from you in the nearest future.
Sincerely,
Leon Swanson from mobile development
Training by Yaw
We held an introductory training in Kampala, Uganda in October 09. During this training Yaw one of the facilitators introduced the ODK concept which is very well received.
Because of this training, we are encouraging our colleagues to use the technology for rapid food security assessments conducted after the short and long rains.
The cloud server technology will be an added advantage. The ability to simultataneously view how other team member are fairing on during the assessments via google maps is another cool tool that endears one to the ODK.
Once members embrace this concept, we will require more training especially on customization of xforms.
